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

The iliofemoral ligament is one of the key stabilizers of the hip joint. Disruption of this soft tissue restraint may result in hip instability and alteration in normal hip biomechanics. The purpose of this article is to describe a technique for primary repair of the iliofemoral ligament using arthroscopy. We describe a double-row suture technique that primarily repairs the ligament without the need for capsular plication or allograft use.
