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

Background: Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury has an incidence of 0.05-0.08 per thousand. An inappropriate treatment plan could lead to articular cartilage damage and early knee osteoarthritis. Some surgical reconstruction techniques use different graft types; all of them try to restore the patient's preinjury activity levels. The current study aims to evaluate the efficacy of ACL reconstruction (ACLR) using an autologous hamstring tendon. Materials and Methods: This is a retrospective one-center cohort study performed on consecutive patients with an ACL injury who underwent ACLR using semitendinosus and gracilis autograft. The postsurgical activity and fear were measured using Marx scale and Tampa scale of kinesophobia, respectively, during a follow-up of 18 months. Results: From a total of 76 patients included in our study, 40.8% were female. The mean age of the participants was 26.25-year-old. Five patients from those with kinesophobia (12.5%) and 34 patients from those with no-kinesophobia (94%) returned to the preinjury activity level ( Conclusion: The current study showed that kinesophobia reduces the rate of return to preinjury levels. Maybe, overcoming this fear will help these patients to reach better results. However, we suggest implementing further trials in larger sample sizes before reaching a solid conclusion.
