Meniscal Ramp Lesion Repair Without the Need for a Posteromedial Portal.
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 4 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
Medial meniscal ramp injury has gained the attention of orthopaedic surgeons in recent years. It consists of a tear of the peripheral insertion of the posterior horn of the medial meniscus. Its prevalence in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction varies between 9% and 40% according to different studies. Ramp lesions cannot always be diagnosed using magnetic resonance imaging scans. To identify ramp lesions, the arthroscope should be introduced into the posteromedial compartment of the knee during the routine examination of the knee (Gillquist maneuver). Not all authors advocate systematically repairing ramp injuries of the medial meniscus, especially when these injuries are small and stable. They have historically been repaired using an outside-in technique using a hook-type suture passed through a posteromedial portal. In this study, we present our all-inside suture technique without the use of a posteromedial portal.
