"Zip" Lesion of the Lateral Meniscus Repair Technique Using All-Inside Meniscus Repair Device.
Article in Arthroscopy techniques, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Ramp lesion of the medial meniscus is an established clinical entity and is one of the causes of the positive pivot-shift test with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury. A similar lesion in the region of the posterior horn of the lateral meniscus extending to the posterior meniscocapsular junction posterior to the popliteal hiatus along with ACL injury is called a "zip lesion." These patients do exhibit a positive pivot shift under anesthesia. We have encountered different injury patterns to the lateral meniscocapsular junction, which can cause altered knee kinematics, and they should be looked for while performing an ACL reconstruction. Failure to identify and repair these lesions will have a deleterious effect on the knee kinematics. If untreated, these lesions may lead to compromised results of the ACL reconstruction. This Technical Note proposes a repair technique for the zip lesion.
