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
objectiveArthroscopic matrix-associated bone marrow stimulation enables treatment of symptomatic osteochondral lesions of the ankle joint to alleviate pain and improve function. INDICATIONS: Symptomatic osteochondral lesions caused by trauma, osteochondritis dissecans, or isolated degenerative cartilage damage. Unstable lesions with nonrefixable fragments. CONTRAINDICATIONS: Acute infections, ubiquitous advanced osteoarthritis. SURGICAL TECHNIQUE: Treatment of intra-articular pathologies and resection of hypertrophic synovia. Unstable cartilage tissue is debrided, and stable margins are created. The subchondral bone is microfractured to promote bleeding and cell migration. For deeper defects, a spongiosa graft can be performed. A tailored collagen matrix is introduced through a mini-arthrotomy and fixed with fibrin glue. POSTOPERATIVE MANAGEMENT: Partial weightbearing of 10-20 kg, depending on the procedure performed. From week 7, load-bearing is gradually increased; full weight-bearing is possible after 12 weeks. Sports activities can be resumed after 6 months.
resultsIn a retrospective analysis of 10.611 inpatient procedures in Germany from 2006-2022, the numbers for arthroscopies and arthrotomies initially increased, whereby the number of arthrotomies peaked in 2020, followed by a decline. Arthroscopic procedures increased steadily, especially from 2014 onward, indicating a preference for the minimally invasive technique.
