Posterior Meniscal Root Repair With Transtibial Double Tunnel Pullout Technique and Anchor Fixation.
Article in Arthroscopy techniques, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Meniscus root tears are tears that occur within 1 cm of the meniscus root attachment to the tibia. If not repaired, root tears will lead to altered knee biomechanics and accelerated degenerative changes in the knee. In this surgical technique, we demonstrate repair of a meniscus root tear with an all-inside suture repair of the posterior meniscus that is then passed through 2 transtibial tunnels and then fixed with an anchor. After surgery, patients are non-weightbearing for 4 weeks and can return to activity by 6 months.
