"Make and Use" All Suture Anchor-A Cost-Effective Method of Making an All-Suture Anchor.
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
All-suture anchors (ASA) are newer anchors that anchor soft tissues to the bone. It has several biomechanical and clinical advantages; however, the high cost of this anchor limits its use in low socioeconomic countries. The cost of the anchor dramatically increases the cost of surgery; hence, acceptance of surgery is also affected if patients have to pay their expenditure from their pocket. We have designed a simple, cost-effective method of making an ASA, which can be made instantly and used during surgery; hence, the name "make-and-use anchor." To make this anchor, few high-strength sutures are required. Over the suture, a sleeve of suture was created using an Ethibond. This sleeve will create a "ball" after deployment under the cortical bone, which provides anchorage to the sutures serving as an anchor. This anchor can be deployed both in the pull-in and push-in methods. This technical note aims to share the technique of making this cost-effective anchor, which is made instantly using locally available suture materials and can be used in various surgeries requiring anchors.
