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

A medial meniscus posterior root tear (MMPRT) contributes to knee joint degeneration. Arthroscopic transtibial pullout repair (ATPR) may restore biomechanical integrity for load transmission. However, degeneration persists after ATPR in certain patients, particularly those with preoperative subchondral insufficiency fracture of the knee (SIFK). We explored the relationship between preoperative SIFK and osteoarthritis (OA) progression in retrospectively enrolled patients who were diagnosed as having an MMPRT and had received ATPR within a single institute. Based on their preoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), these patients were then categorized into SIFK and non-SIFK groups. OA progression was evaluated by determining Kellgren-Lawrence (KL) grade changes and preoperative and postoperative median joint widths. SIFK characteristics were quantified using Image J (Version 1.52a). Both groups exhibited significant post-ATPR changes in medial knee joint widths. The SIFK group demonstrated significant KL grade changes (
