How To Avoid Suture Damage in Simultaneous Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction and Lateral Meniscal Posterior Root Reinsertion With the Transtibial Pullout Technique: A Technical Note.
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 2 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
Lateral meniscus posterior root tears (LMPRTs) are estimated to occur in 7% to 12% of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL)-injured knees. This topic is of great interest because of their biomechanical consequences in terms of interruption of hoop stress distribution. If left unrepaired, the corresponding compartment is exposed to unfavorable contact dynamics, similar to those resulting from a total meniscectomy. This Technical Note describes a transtibial LMPRT repair using a Knee Scorpion and an 18-gauge spinal needle. It is a reproducible arthroscopic LMPR reinsertion technique combined with concomitant standard ACL + anterolateral ligament reconstruction with hamstring tendons and it describes how to safely avoid damage to root traction sutures during the ACL independent tibial tunnel drilling.
