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
purposeTo evaluate the clinical and radiographic outcomes of anterior cruciate (ACL) reconstruction at minimum 10-year follow-up.
methodsNinety-three patients who underwent primary unilateral ACL reconstruction with hamstring tendon autograft, transtibial technique and femoral cortico-cancellous screw suspension device (Athrax, Leader Medica s.r.l) between 2010 and 2012 were retrospectively reviewed. Mean follow-up was 136 months. Evaluation was performed using the International Knee Documentation Committee score (IKDC), Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS), Lysholm Knee Score and Tegner Activity Level Scale. Incidence of OA was determined by comparing standard anteroposterior and lateral weightbearing radiographs of the ACL-reconstructed and contralateral knee. Osteoarthritis severity was graded according to the Kellgren-Lawrence (KL) score.
resultsMedian Tegner activity level was 6 (5-7). Lysholm and IKDC scores were 100 (95-100) and 90 (86-95), respectively, KOOS was 98 (95-100). Of ACL-reconstructed knees, 41 (50%) had radiographic OA, of which 6 (7.3%) had severe OA (KL III). Of the contralateral healthy knees, 28 (34.1%) had radiographic evidence of OA. Of these 22 (26.8%) and 6 (7.3%) patients had, respectively, KL-I and KL-II. 11 patients (11.8%) underwent subsequent knee surgery: 5 (5.4%) revisions, 3 (3.2%) meniscal surgeries, 2 (2.2%) other surgeries, 1 (1.1%) contralateral ACL reconstruction.
conclusionsThe study demonstrates that ACL reconstruction with HT autograft and cortico-cancellous screw suspension device determines satisfying clinical results after 10 years of follow-up. From our cohort, a low rate of graft failure has been reported, even though almost 50% of patients present a knee OA greater or equal to grade II KL.
