Functional outcome after arthroscopic mosaicplasty for localised osteochondral defects in the knee.
Article in Medical journal, Armed Forces India, 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
Methods: A longitudinal follow-up study was conducted on 50 patients aged between 18-55 years with symptomatic focal cartilage defect in the knee of size less than 2.0 cm Results: Most patients were young active males. Clinical presentation involved pain in all participants, followed by joint line tenderness. There was at least one associated injury to other intra-articular structures in 52% of the patients. The commonest associated injury was anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tear followed by meniscus tear. The mean size of the focal cartilage defect was 1.013 cm Conclusion: Mosaicplasty is an excellent procedure for managing cartilage defects of small to medium sizes, less than 2.0 cm
