Simultaneous High Tibial Osteotomy and Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction in knees with Bony Frontal and/or Sagittal Deformities: Review of the Current Literature.
Article in The archives of bone and joint surgery, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Simultaneous anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction (ACLR) and valgus high tibial osteotomy (HTO) alleviates pain in 70% of individuals with ACL deficiency and varus femorotibial osteoarthritis, allows for sustainable stabilization of the knee at the 10-year follow-up and a return to sport (RTS) in 33%-80% of cases, but femorotibial osteoarthritis progression occurs in 39% of cases. The complication rate ranges from 0% to 23.5% (6.5% revision valgus HTO, 17.5% ACL graft failure, 7.7% venous thrombosis). Simultaneous ACLR and HTO leads to satisfactory results in patients with ACL deficiency and varus femorotibial osteoarthritis associated with a high posterior tibial slope (PTS) and appears to have a protective effect on further ruptures in the reconstructed ACL. The younger the patient and the more sporting demands he/she poses, the more we should be inclined to perform a combined intervention (ACLR and valgus HTO).
