1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

contextLow scores on psychological patient-reported outcomes measures, including the Anterior Cruciate Ligament-Return to Sport After Injury (ACL-RSI) and Injury-Psychological Readiness to Return to Sport (I-PRRS), after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) have been associated with a maladaptive psychological response to injury and poor prognosis.

objectiveTo assess the effect of time post-ACLR and sex on ACL-RSI and I-PRRS scores and generate normative reference curves.

designCase series.

settingOutpatient sports medicine and orthopaedic clinic. PATIENTS OR OTHER

participantsA total of 507 patients (age at ACLR, 17.9 ± 3.0 years) who had undergone primary ACLR and completed ACL-RSI or I-PRRS assessments ≥1 times (n = 796) between 0 and 1 year post-ACLR. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S): An honest broker provided anonymous data from our institution's knee-injury clinical database. Generalized additive models for location, scale, and shape and generalized least-squares analyses were used to assess the effect of time post-ACLR and sex on ACL-RSI and I-PRRS scores.

resultsThe ACL-RSI and I-PRRS scores increased over time post-ACLR. Males had higher scores than females until approximately 5 months post-ACLR, with scores converging thereafter.

conclusionsMales reported higher ACL-RSI and I-PRRS scores than females in the initial stages of rehabilitation, but scores converged between sexes at times associated with return to play post-ACLR. Normative reference curves can be used to objectively appraise ACL-RSI and I-PRRS scores at any time post-ACLR. This may lead to timely recognition of patients with a maladaptive psychological response to injury and a higher likelihood of a poor prognosis, optimizing ACLR outcomes.
