Knee Fellowships Improve Clinical Practice and Scientific Activity.

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
Purpose: To determine the benefits of completing a knee fellowship for orthopaedic surgeons specializing in the treatment of sports injuries. Methods: An online survey was conducted to assess changes in clinical practice, and scientific activity in knee surgery, with special focus on the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) before and after a knee fellowship. Results: A total of 74 of 102 (72.54%) fellows completed the survey. The mean age of the respondents was 36.85 ± 5.0 years (range 28-47 years). Sixty-nine (93.24%) were male, and 5 were female (6.75%). Before the fellowship, only 6 (8.10%) surgeons had performed more than 50 ACL surgeries yearly as the first operator, whereas more than 60% (46) had performed fewer than 10 ACL surgeries; after the fellowship, more than 50% (41) of the surgeons performed more than 50 ACL surgeries yearly as the first operator ( Conclusions: Knee fellowships in highly specialized centers improve surgical activity in terms of surgical procedures and scientific production; furthermore, almost all the fellows reported that they would pursue such a fellowship again. Clinical Relevance: The results of this study may provide fellowship directors with important feedback about the strengths and weaknesses of the experience from participants.
