Quadriceps Tendon Delamination Tear: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Partial quadriceps tendon ruptures are rare and they are usually managed non-operatively, provided that the extensor mechanism is intact. In case the extension mechanism is compromised, a more aggressive treatment is required, which includes surgical repair of the tendon. We present an extremely rare case of a 42-year-old male lifter who sustained a quadriceps tendon delamination tear, after lifting weights. Careful clinical examination revealed a compromised extension mechanism of the knee. Proper imaging confirmed the diagnosis of partial but significant rupture of the undersurface of the quadriceps tendon, which was treated operatively (standard tendon repair with the Krakow technique and three transosseous tunnels) with a very good outcome.
