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

Meniscal root tears have been shown to significantly impact tibiofemoral mechanics and contribute to accelerated development of osteoarthritis. A common finding in conjunction with a meniscal root tear is extrusion of the meniscus. Meniscal extrusion is an independent risk factor for tibiofemoral cartilage loss and the progression of osteoarthritis. Meniscus centralization was first introduced to directly address extrusion alongside root repair techniques. To date, reported techniques for meniscus centralization generally involve anchoring the meniscus directly to the tibia in some fashion, which can limit the normal anatomic motion of the meniscus. We present a technique for meniscus centralization that aims to maintain natural meniscal motion by utilizing the meniscotibial ligaments.
