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

Lateral collateral ligament (LCL) injuries are commonly associated with other knee ligament injuries such as anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries. Significant injuries to the LCL should be addressed at the same time as ACL reconstruction. This prevents any varus instability, which can jeopardize the integrity of the ACL graft, resulting in graft failure. This technical note describes combined ACL and LCL reconstruction using an outside-in drilling technique for the femoral tunnel in which the hamstring tendons are used for simultaneous reconstruction of both injured ligaments, which avoids tunnel convergence.
