Proximal Capsular Augmentation With the Indirect Head of the Rectus Femoris for Longitudinal Capsulotomy in Primary Hip Arthroscopy.
Article in Arthroscopy techniques, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
The positive effect of the capsular closure in maintaining the integrity of the joint capsule has been demonstrated, but most capsular closure techniques are primarily for interportal capsulotomy, with few techniques described for longitudinal capsulotomy. In our clinical practice, the incomplete closure of the proximal capsule in longitudinal capsulotomy may result in weakness or nonunion of the proximal capsule. Thus, we propose a technique of anatomic repair of the joint capsule with the indirect head of the rectus femoris as proximal augmentation in cases of longitudinal capsulotomy. This technique could provide a plausible and feasible solution for complete capsular closure of the longitudinal capsulotomy, which could decrease the risk of weakness or nonunion of the proximal capsule.
