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

All-inside techniques are based on devices that use PEEK (polyether ether ketone) or biocomposite anchors placed at extracapsular locations such as anchorage points over which the sutures are tied. However, because of complications like irritability and intra-articular migration of these hard anchors, suture-based all-inside meniscal repair systems are now gaining popularity. Although these devices have advantages over conventional all-inside devices, they are costly, thus limiting their widespread use. The AJStitch meniscus repair system uses a specially designed spear to insert all-suture anchors, which can be made using a No. 5 Netbond and 2-0 Ultranet. This Technical Note describes the use of this system. It is an all-inside, all-suture meniscus repair system that provides a locally made, cost-effective option for posterior horn medial meniscus repair.
