Gluteus Maximus and Tensor Fascia Lata Tendon Transfers Without Bony Fixation: Operative Technique.
Article in Arthroscopy techniques, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Hip abductor insufficiency due to an irreparable or severely atrophied gluteal cuff is a potentially debilitating cause of lateral hip pain. Gluteus maximus and tensor fascia lata tendon transfers have been utilized to relieve lateral hip pain and improve abductor strength. Classical surgical techniques relying on bony fixation have shown promising results for patients, but this approach is problematic in the setting of poor bone quality. This Technical Note describes our surgical approach for performing these tendon transfers with fixation to the proximal vastus lateralis fascia, a reliable method regardless of bone quality.
