Reconstruction of the Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Through a Double Bundle of a Single Patellar Tract and Quadriceps Tendon: A Modified Technique.

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
The medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) is one of the important structures that maintains patellar stability during knee flexion and extension. For patients with patellar dislocation, timely surgical reconstruction of the MPFL can reduce the risk of patellofemoral joint degeneration. Different methods of MPFL reconstruction have been reported in the literature. However, complications such as patellar fracture, postoperative foreign body stimulation, and fixation failure caused by inappropriate graft tension are common clinical problems. Therefore, on the basis of physiological anatomy, we present our surgical technique for MPFL reconstruction. The advantages are that the single bone tunnel is easy to use, effectively simulating the physiological anatomy of the medial support structure of the knee joint; a good fixation effect is achieved; and costs are decreased.
