Osteochondral Lesions of the Tibial Plafond: A Restorative Procedure for Cystic Defects.
Article in Video journal of sports medicine. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Background: Osteochondral lesions of the tibia plafond (OLTPs) are an uncommon problem that can generate pain. Indications: Arthroscopic techniques can provide symptomatic relief and improved outcomes when conservative management has failed. Technique Description: We present our arthroscopic technique for managing osteochondral lesions of the distal tibia with subchondral cyst formation. By addressing the lesion with bone marrow aspirate concentrate mixed with micronized cartilage matrix and sealing with fibrin glue, we achieve stable restoration of the osteochondral lesion in a competitive athlete. Results: This operative intervention has been shown in clinical series to improve American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society ankle-hindfoot scores postoperatively. Discussion/Conclusion: This restorative procedure for OLTP cystic defects has been shown to produce good to excellent results and is a viable, minimally invasive option in the competitive athlete.
