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

Tibial spine avulsion fractures occur predominantly in children and young adults and are an uncommon type of knee injury. To ensure knee stability and preserve range of motion with minimal knee laxity, it is essential to restore anterior cruciate ligament length through surgical reduction and fixation of the fracture. Achieving anatomic reduction of tibial spine avulsion fractures with an arthroscopic approach is a technically complex procedure. In this Technical Note and accompanying video, we describe a unique fixation repair of tibial spine avulsion fractures using Arthrex FiberRing sutures and an Arthrex ACL Repair TightRope. The technique presented is an effective method to reduce tibial spine avulsion fractures to anatomic position with a variable tensioning system that allows for a strong and secure fixation method.
