Anatomic Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction Using "Double-Socket" Technique.
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
In young individuals, recurrent patellar dislocation is a common issue. Surgical treatment often involves reconstructing the medial patellofemoral ligament. Various techniques exist, but most involve large transpatellar tunnels or suture anchors. Our medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction technique uses 2 small sockets on the medial border of the patella. There are no implants in the patella, which reduces the risk of patellar fracture. The graft, which is already secured in these sockets, obtains additional attachment to the roughened medial patellar border, thereby promoting robust healing and stability. This approach is both effective and cost-efficient.
