Tears, Tendons, and Trends: A Bibliometric Analysis on Anterior Cruciate Ligament Research.
Article in Orthopedic reviews, 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
This bibliometric analysis investigates global research trends in anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury prevention and treatment by evaluating 4,086 articles indexed in the Web of Science Core Collection from 1985 to June 18, 2025. The top funding agencies of ACL research showed governmental-linked institutions from the United States, the People's Republic of China, and Japan supporting a substantial part of ACL literature. Keyword emphasis on surgical methods was evident in the indexed literature on ACL. Continued research towards improving surgical methods will prevent retear, assist in more efficient recovery, and better long-term outcomes for the patient.
