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

Discoid lateral meniscus is the most prevalent anatomical variant in the Asian population, with the posterolateral corner loss type being the second most prevalent tear pattern. This tear typically affects the posterior horn and midbody of the lateral meniscus, often necessitating subtotal meniscectomy. However, long-term follow-up indicates a high incidence of early degenerative changes after such procedures. Recent advancements in arthroscopic techniques provide opportunities to reconstruct the meniscus, restoring its normal morphology and function. Here, we describe the arthroscopic marginalization technique, which allows for complete repair of the posterolateral corner loss-type discoid lateral meniscus using the thickened central portion that would otherwise be removed during subtotal meniscectomy.
