Exploring osteochondral damage patterns in acute patellar dislocation: insights into morphological associations and risk factors.
Article in Scientific reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Osteochondral damage (OD) is a significant outcome following acute patellar dislocation (APD), yet the factors contributing to its susceptibility remain unclear. The primary objective of this study was to assess the association between demographic characteristics, patellofemoral (PF) joint morphology, and the occurrence of OD. A retrospective analysis identified 74 patients with APD who underwent treatment in our unit between 2019 and 2022. All patients received MRI within a week of injury to assess OD, subsequently categorized according to the injury pattern. The Caton-Deschamps index (CDI), tibial tuberosity-trochlear groove distance (TT-TG), lateral trochlear inclination (LTI), sulcus angle (SA), patellar width (PW), patellar thickness (PT), and femoral condyle geometry were calculated from the MRI scans and compared between groups. The findings revealed that OD predominantly manifested in the lateral femoral condyle (LFC) region and the medial patella (MP) region. In our patient cohort, this study identified a significant association between sulcus angle and the incidence of OD in both MP and LFC regions. Additionally, a significant correlation was discerned between skeletal maturity and the incidence of OD in the LFC region within demographic characteristics.
