Quadriceps tendon reconstruction with LARS ligament due to fibroma of tendon sheath.
Article in BMC musculoskeletal disorders, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
backgroundAlthough chronic quadriceps tendon rupture and defect are rare, they pose significant challenges in surgical treatment. In these cases, quadriceps tendon reconstruction is necessary. Either autologous or allogeneic tendons have been used for this reconstruction. But a choice with the ligament augmentation and reconstruction system (LARS), can potentially minimize various complications associated with autologous or allogenic tendon. CASE PRESENTATION: A 35-year-old man complained of knee pain due to recurrent fibroma of tendon sheath (FTS) in the quadriceps tendon, which had undergone arthroscopic resection 12 months ago. In this case, LARS artificial ligament was implemented to fill the space and restore knee extension function after resecting the tumor of quadriceps tendon. The patellar side of the artificial ligament was fixed by double-beam tunnel compression, and the soft tissue side was fixed by suture. During follow-up, the pain disappeared and the knee joint function also returned to normal.
conclusionsQuadriceps tendon reconstruction with LARS ligament could achieve good clinical results and should be a good choice for defect of quadriceps tendon.
