Horizontal Cleavage Meniscus Tear: "The Quad Tendon Augmentation Technique".
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
The management of medial meniscus horizontal cleavage tears can be challenging. Currently, several treatment options, including nonoperative and surgical options, have been proposed in the literature. Different repair techniques aiming to promote the healing process have been reported and have shown good outcomes. However, recurrent parameniscal cysts and decreased meniscal volume have also been reported. In this Technical Note, a novel surgical technique to repair a horizontal cleavage tear of the posterior horn of the medial meniscus is reported in young patients. The technique uses a strip of autologous quadriceps tendon to fill the void between the upper and lower meniscal leaflets followed by an all-inside compression suture. Both of these technical features aim to overcome the limitations of current repair techniques.
