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

Purpose: To examine the long-term results of the Press-Fit-Hybrid fixation technique in anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction on self-reported knee function, sport ability, return to sport (RTS) success, quality of life and re-rupture rates. Methods: Adults with ACL rupture which was reconstructed between 2011 and 2013 using the Press-Fit-Hybrid fixation technique were included. Participants completed questionnaires before surgery and at 6-month, 1-year, 2-year, 3-year and 10-year follow-ups. Subjective knee function was self-reported using the International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) and Lysholm scores. The level of sport activities was assessed using the Tegner Activity Scale (TAS), and quality of life was evaluated with the Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score Quality of Life subscale (KOOS-QoL). RTS success rates were categorised into return to participation, RTS and return to performance. Results: Participants ( Conclusion: Press-Fit-Hybrid leads to low re-rupture and high RTS rates, restoring knee functionality and improved quality of life. Preliminary results need validation in a randomised controlled trial. Level of Evidence: Level III.
