Evaluation of meniscal injury on magnetic resonance imaging and knee arthroscopy in patient with anterior cruciate ligament tear.

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
introductionMeniscal injuries often occur in association with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury. Failure to detect meniscal tears in patients with ACL injuries can lead to more complex tears and make them more difficult to repair.
objectiveTo determine the degree of correlation between magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and knee arthroscopy in diagnosing meniscal injuries in patients with ACL tears.
methodsA prospective descriptive study was conducted on 185 patients diagnosed with ACL tears through knee arthroscopy at Thong Nhat Hospital from April 2023 to April 2024.
resultsThe accuracy of MRI and its correlation with arthroscopy in detecting meniscal injuries is 69.2%, indicating a low degree of agreement between MRI and arthroscopy results. Diagnosis of meniscal injury location has an accuracy of 57.1%, indicating a minimal to low degree of agreement between MRI and arthroscopy results. Diagnosis of the injury region: Accuracy over 85%, with Kappa coefficients ranging from 0.3 to 0.59, p < 0.001. Diagnosis of the morphology of meniscal injuries: Accuracy over 89%, with Kappa coefficients ranging from 0.26 to 0.66, p < 0.001.
conclusionThere is a minimal to moderate correlation between MRI and arthroscopy in detecting, and diagnosing the location, region, and morphology of meniscal injuries in patients with ACL tears. Therefore, caution is advised when diagnosing meniscal injuries based solely on MRI findings in patients with ACL tears.
