Osteochondral autologous transplantation for large steroid-induced osteonecrosis lesion of the knee in a young patient yielding satisfactory results despite only partial coverage: a case report.

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
Osteochondral autologous transplantation (OAT) is one of the most common surgical options for osteochondral disorders of the knee. In cases where OAT is performed for steroid-induced osteonecrosis, there are several problems potentially affecting the surgical outcomes such as large chondral damage area and compromised host bone. In addition, steroid administration for a long period of time may lead to extensive lesion, which poses difficulty in obtaining sufficient donor tissue. Those factors affect the prognosis of steroid-induced osteonecrosis resulting in inferior treatment outcomes. We present a young female with a large steroid-induced osteonecrosis lesion repaired only with two osteochondral plugs harvested from the healthy area. The reported case indicates that only partial osteochondral grafting limiting to the weight-bearing area may yield satisfactory outcome when OAT is performed for large steroid-induced osteonecrosis of the knee.
