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

Arthroscopic treatment of lateral meniscus tear at popliteal hiatus area remains challenging due to the complex anatomy of the popliteal hiatus and limited operating space of the lateral compartment. Subtle injuries to attachments of the popliteal hiatus may be overlooked. Thus, this article presents an all-inside suture technique stitching the torn lateral meniscus to popliteomeniscal fascicles that avoids leaving the lateral meniscus unstable in at popliteal hiatus area postoperatively. Concern about entrapping the popliteal tendon or all-inside meniscus suture anchor migration in the joint cavity is not necessary.
