All-inside arthroscopic procedures for chronic lateral ankle instability: evidence-based clinical practice guidelines.
Guideline in British medical bulletin, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundAll-inside arthroscopic procedures are now frequently employed to manage chronic lateral ankle instability (CLAI) with satisfactory functional outcomes. Currently, no evidence-based guidelines exist for all-inside arthroscopic procedures for CLAI. Many surgical decisions remain uncertain and challenging. SOURCES OF DATA: Published scientific literature in PubMed, MEDLINE, Web of Science, EMBASE, and Cochrane databases. AREAS OF AGREEMENT: All-inside arthroscopic repair and reconstruction procedures are reliable treatments for CLAI. AREAS OF CONTROVERSY: The all-inside arthroscopic procedures for CLAI present significant challenges, particularly in the following aspects. GROWING POINTS: Given the lack of guidelines for the all-inside arthroscopic procedures for CLAI, this evidence-based clinical practice guideline provides 11 recommendations to address the controversy. AREAS TIMELY FOR DEVELOPING RESEARCH: In patients with CLAI undergoing all-inside arthroscopic procedures, comparative studies are urgently needed to establish the optimal timing for weight-bearing, as well as return to work and sports.
