Posterior Capsular Imbrication for Dynamic Genu Valgum.
Article in Arthroscopy techniques, 2025. 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
Symptomatic genu recurvatum, defined as knee hyperextension beyond 5° with symptoms of pain or instability, is uncommon and presents a challenging treatment paradigm for orthopaedic surgeons. Treatment options focus on initial nonoperative management with bracing and physical therapy focused on correcting gait abnormalities and strengthening dynamic stabilizers, addressing soft-tissue laxity via posterior capsular tensioning/imbrication, and correcting osseous abnormalities with anterior opening-wedge proximal tibial osteotomies. In cases in which there are minimal bony abnormalities contributing to recurvatum, such as posterior tibial slope, posterior capsular imbrication is indicated. There is a lack of both technical and outcome literature on posterior capsular imbrication; thus, the purpose of this technical note is to describe our technique for performing a modern arthroscopic posterior capsular imbrication for dynamic genu recurvatum.
