Improvement of Posterior Cruciate Ligament Buckling and Anterior Tibial Subluxation by Anterior Scar Removal of the Posterior Cruciate Ligament: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) buckling and anterior tibial subluxation are observed in patients with insufficient anterior cruciate ligament (ACL). Here, we report the case of a patient after ACL reconstruction in whom these symptoms were improved by anterior scar resection of buckled PCL. The patient was a 46-year-old man. Six years ago, he underwent ACL reconstruction; however, his condition was not satisfactory. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed intercondylar impingement of the graft, anterior tibial subluxation, and PCL buckling. Intercondylar notchplasty and resection of the anterior scar of PCL were performed arthroscopically. Postoperative MRI showed improvement in PCL buckling and anterior tibial subluxation. His symptoms improved, and he was able to jog one year after surgery. Anterior scar resection of PCL may improve PCL buckling and anterior tibial subluxation after ACL reconstruction.
