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
Objectives: The purpose of this study was to describe the tibial plateau surface geometry and the contact mechanics after medial and lateral partial and total meniscectomies in the canine stifle. Study design: This was an Results: Based on the normalized data, lateral total meniscectomy caused significantly greater changes in PCP than medial total meniscectomy. In contrast, partial meniscectomy, whether medial or lateral, did not result in any significant differences in PCP. With a total meniscectomy, mean PCP increased by 72 and 273% for the medial and lateral meniscus, respectively. Based on the absolute values, the PCP after lateral partial meniscectomy was significantly higher than after medial partial meniscectomy. The radius of curvature of the lateral tibial plateau (12.8 ± 10.9 mm) was smaller than the radius of the medial tibial plateau (25.9 ± 17.8 mm) ( Conclusion: Based on our results, the geometry of the medial and lateral tibial plateau may explain the different contact mechanics following medial and lateral meniscectomy. A total lateral meniscectomy may have greater detrimental effects when compared to medial meniscectomy.
