Investigation of Morphometric Factors Associated With Adolescent ACL Rupture.
Article in Orthopaedic journal of sports medicine, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Background: There are no definitive anatomic morphometric risk factors for adolescent anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury. Purpose: To compare the parameters used to define the tibial and femoral morphometric structure of the knee between adolescent patients with and without ACL rupture. Study Design: Cross-sectional study; Level of evidence, 3. Methods: Included were magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans and radiographs of 115 patients aged 10 to 17 years who were evaluated for ACL rupture at a single institution between February 1, 2019, and January 31, 2022. Images from 115 patients with intact MRI scans were included as controls. We investigated the following imaging parameters: tibial slope (on lateral radiograph), lateral condylar height, tibial sulcus height, medial condylar height, condylar width, intercondylar notch with, intercondylar notch angle, notch index, eminence width, tibial plateau width, eminence width/tibial plateau width, medial/lateral/overall eminence height, medial plateau depth, and 2 different eminence angles. Parameters were compared between groups using the chi-square, Fisher exact, Student Results: There were no significant differences in age, sex, or side affected between groups. Only the medial plateau depth was found to be statistically significant between the ACL rupture and ACL intact groups (2.6 vs 2.2 mm; Conclusion: Medial plateau depth was found to be significantly greater in adolescent patients with ACL rupture compared with ACL-intact controls.
