Approaching ramp lesions from the different world of posterior knee compartment: A review of evidence with a proposal of a new classification and treatment.
Review in Journal of experimental orthopaedics, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Ramp lesions (RLs) are peripheral lesions that occur in the posterior part of the medial meniscus or where it attaches to the joint capsule. The classification of the medial meniscus RLs has been the focus of numerous studies and publications. This review provides an overview of RL's current classification and treatment options in anterior cruciate ligament deficient knees. The study also aims to present a more practical classification system for RLs to assist in treatment decision-making. For the first time, we also presented a new surgical treatment for incomplete inferior and double-complete RL based on the posterior knee arthroscopy that provides direct access to the posterior meniscal borders, enabling effective treatment and stronger biomechanical repair. Level of Evidence: Level V.
