1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Medial meniscus posterior root tears (MMPRTs) are a risk factor for knee osteoarthritis because of the destruction of the meniscal hoop structure. Medial open wedge high tibial osteotomy can be combined with MMPRT pullout repair to reduce pressure on the medial compartment. However, when these techniques are performed simultaneously, the locking screws of the plate interfere with the tibial bone tunnel, resulting in suture damage or nonanatomic MMPRT repair. In this Technical Note, we describe a surgical technique for transtibial medial meniscus posterior root pullout repair fixed with a bioabsorbable screw before osteotomy for knee osteoarthritis with MMPRT without interference with the screws of medial open wedge high tibial osteotomy.
