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

In recent years, degenerative meniscal lesions have received increasing attention as an etiologic factor of knee osteoarthritis. Among various relevant factors, medial meniscal extrusion has been shown to be an independent predictor of the onset and progression of knee osteoarthritis. Therefore, surgical reduction of the extruded medial meniscus to restore meniscal function is key to preventing osteoarthritis of the knee. The arthroscopic centralization technique using knotless anchors has been developed and refined to reduce meniscal extrusion in the posteromedial region of the knee. Although a short-term study has reported favorable outcomes, the technique presents some pitfalls and can be technically challenging. This article describes the rationale and procedure for arthroscopic belt capsulodesis using 2 knotless anchors for reduction of medial meniscal extrusion. The reported procedure is technically simple and efficiently reduces meniscal extrusion by repairing the meniscotibial capsule, and it may be useful in the prevention of osteoarthritic progression.
