Understanding the patho-anatomy of patellofemoral pain: A crucial foundation for comprehensive management.
Article in Orthopedic reviews, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Patellofemoral or anterior knee pain is a common cause of medical evaluation around the globe. It affects one in four individuals and is more frequent in females. It is considered a multifactorial disease in which conservative management must focus on the alterations found in the physical exam and radiologic images. Recurrence is high, as 39-40% of the patients continue with symptoms in one year of follow-up. Surgical management should be considered when symptoms persist after six months of conservative measures and when evident malalignments are identified. This article aims to establish and summarize the possible causes, involve the importance of the physical examination and the radiologic images suggested, as to consider the different treatment options that may be used to treat such a frequent and irregular pathology.
