Suture Anchor Technique for Bridge Enhanced Anterior Cruciate Ligament Restoration.
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
Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries are common in the athletic population. ACL repair with bridge enhancement is an emerging technology with promising clinical outcomes in patients with a proximal to midsubstance ACL tears. Currently, there are a variety of fixation methods described for isolated ACL repair, including suspensory and anchor techniques. This Technical Note describes a bridge enhanced ACL restoration procedure technique, using suture anchors for the femoral fixation. Advantages of this technique include more rigid fixation and avoiding need for accessory over-the-top incision. Additionally, the surgical workflow is more similar to an ACL reconstruction with intra-articular screw fixation, which may be more readily adopted by some surgeons.
