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

Chondral delamination, characterized by separation between the articular cartilage and subchondral bone, commonly affects middle-aged adults and can evolve into cartilage defects. Management of extensive chondral delamination presents a significant challenge, particularly in preserving the delaminated yet structurally intact cartilage. Despite its clinical importance, there is no standardized treatment protocol for this condition, and there are few long-term follow-up studies of its surgical management. This case report presents the long-term clinical and radiological outcomes of a novel combined surgical approach for large chondral delamination in a neutrally aligned knee, and discuss the benefits and potential complications of this treatment strategy. In conclusion, autogenous osteochondral transplantation combined with medial opening-wedge high tibial osteotomy shows excellent long-term functional outcomes for large medial femoral condyle chondral delamination.
