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
This case report highlights a rare complication of arthroscopic meniscal tear which is an arteriovenous fistula and pseudoaneurysm of the superior medial geniculate artery. A 14-year-old male patient presented with persistent hemarthrosis following arthroscopic repair of a bucket handle medial meniscal tear. The patient was investigated due to suspicion of vascular damage. After obtaining computed tomography arteriogram, the patient was diagnosed with an arteriovenous fistula and pseudoaneurysm of the superior medial geniculate artery. Conservative management was pursued following consultation with cardiovascular surgery. At three months, the arteriovenous fistula was observed to be in remission. In conclusion, orthopedic surgeons performing knee arthroscopy should be vigilant about potential vascular complications, although rare, and consider early diagnosis and treatment in cases of persistent postoperative hemarthrosis.
