Underutilization of coper/non-coper screening in anterior cruciate ligament injuries management in Italy: an online survey.

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
Introduction: Total and sub-total lesions of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) are one of the most frequent and performance-limiting injuries to the knee joint within the active population. Early surgical management, often regarded as the primary management strategy, has recently been shown to have similar outcomes when compared with an initial rehabilitative approach followed by surgical ACL reconstruction if higher levels of functionality are needed. The primary objective of the study was to investigate the physiotherapists and orthopedic surgeons' "coper/non-coper" screening application in the clinical management of the patient after ACL injury. Second, the authors aimed to investigate the cooperation between physiotherapists and orthopedic surgeons when dealing with patients with ACL injuries. Methods: An online survey consisting of 12 questions on the clinical practice of the surveyed physiotherapists ( Results: Both physiotherapists and orthopedic surgeons showed a low degree of confidence and application of the "coper/non-coper" screening when managing ACL lesions. The sub-population of ACL experts reported a good level of interprofessional interaction. Nevertheless, an updated level of knowledge regarding the recent evidence on the non-surgical management of ACL lesions is still lacking. Conclusions: The study findings indicate the need to improve the collaboration between Italian physiotherapists and orthopedic surgeons as well as their knowledge of the non-surgical approaches to ACL lesions.
