[Subtuberosity anterior closing wedge osteotomy to correct the increased posterior slope of the tibial plateau].
Review in Operative Orthopadie und Traumatologie, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
objectiveReduction of increased reclination of the tibial plateau (posterior slope) to improve the anterior stability of the knee joint. INDICATIONS: Increased posterior reclination of the tibial plateau greater than 12° in combination with recurrent instability after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. CONTRAINDICATIONS: Hyperextension of more than 15° (relative). SURGICAL TECHNIQUE: Anterior skin incision approximately 8-10 cm above the tibial tuberosity. Insertion of two converging guidewires directly below the patellar tendon ending obliquely in the area of the posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) insertion. Control of the wire position with the image intensifier core. Oscillating saw osteotomy. Removal of the wedge and closure of the osteotomy. Osteosynthesis with interfragmentary screw and medial angle-stable plate. POSTOPERATIVE MANAGEMENT: Partial load with 10-20 kg for 2 weeks, then step by step increase in load. Mobility: free.
resultsTo date we have operated on 36 patients with recurrent instability after ACL reconstruction (20 men, 16 women, average age 34.4 years) in the manner described in this article. In 25 cases, enlarged bone tunnels were filled with allogeneic bone at the same time. The posterior slope of the tibial plateau could be reduced from an average of 14.5° to 8.8°. In 28 cases another ACL reconstruction was performed after an interval of 4-12 months. The Lysholm score significantly increased from 76.3 points to 89.2 points.
