Arthroscopic Lateral Retinacular-Lengthening Procedure.
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 1 paper.
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 knee pain is a common musculoskeletal complaint that is often due to an excessively tight lateral retinaculum, which normally plays a role in patellar tracking and stabilization. Several etiologies underlie lateral soft-tissue tightness in the knee, including lateral patellar compression syndrome, patellofemoral arthritis, patellofemoral instability, and patellofemoral pain syndrome. Stretching the lateral retinaculum through conservative treatment may be helpful, but lateral retinacular lengthening may be indicated. Since this surgical procedure has classically been performed in an open fashion, the purpose of this Technical Note is to describe an arthroscopic technique designed to limit complications, improve patient outcomes, and reduce operative and recovery times.
