Open Medial Meniscotibial Ligament Repair With Concomitant Open Superficial Medial Collateral Ligament Repair With Internal Brace Augmentation.
Article in Arthroscopy techniques, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
The medial collateral ligament (MCL) is the most commonly injured ligament in the knee. Historically, nonsurgical management for these injuries has been favored for a majority of grade I-III sprains, particularly femoral-based. However, when coupled with other injuries such as meniscotibial ligament tears or distal Stener type avulsion tears, early surgical management for these cases is recommended. This will allow for stabilization and protection of the meniscus in addition to preventing residual valgus laxity, especially related to more severe Stener-like avulsions of the superficial MCL that can be seen with meniscotibial ligament tears. Utilizing an open approach, meniscotibial repair with suture anchors with internal brace augmentation for the MCL repair can provide a strong final construct, and a safe and fast recovery.
