The 11-8 Suture Technique for Lateral Meniscal Radial Tear Repair: Detailed Description of the Surgical Approach.
Article in Arthroscopy techniques, 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
Radial tears of the meniscus can lead to cartilage degeneration and meniscal osteoarthritis if left untreated or treated with meniscectomy. Therefore, repair techniques are increasingly used. We describe a method called the "11-8 suture" technique for the repair of lateral meniscal radial tears in the middle to posterior segments, which preserves meniscal mobility and provides robust suturing. First, vertical sutures are placed at both ends of the tear. Next, the torn edges are approximated using a single thread in a figure-of-8 pattern encompassing the vertical sutures. This technique offers strong initial fixation and preserves the mobility of the lateral meniscus, making it a beneficial suturing method.
