1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

There is currently no consensus on the optimal placement of the tibial tunnel for double-bundle posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) reconstruction. The purpose of this study was to compare the clinical and radiologic outcomes of double-bundle PCL reconstruction utilizing anatomic versus low tibial tunnels. We conducted a retrospective cohort study involving patients who underwent double-bundle PCL reconstruction between Jan 2019 and Jan 2022, with a minimum follow-up of 2 years (
