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

The anterior horn lateral meniscus tear often is accompanied by perimeniscal cysts, which are treated with arthroscopic cyst excision with outside-in repair of the anterior horn. After cyst excision, there is a large gap between the thin anterior capsule and the anterior horn, which sometimes does not allow a stable repair. The suture knots may be palpable below the skin postoperation and cause irritation. A recently published technique repairs the anterior horn with a suture anchor using a suture lasso technique. We suggest a modification using a knotless anchor instead of a suture anchor, which allows a predictable tension across the repair when deployed. This technique can be used for both anterior horn lateral meniscus and anterior horn medial meniscus repairs. This technique is easy to perform, less time consuming, and reproducible.
