A Low-Cost Tensionable Quadriceps Tendon Rupture Repair Using Transosseous Tunnels.

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
A quadriceps tendon rupture is a traumatic injury of the quadriceps insertion on the patella leading to a disruption in the knee extensor mechanism. Diagnosis is usually made clinically with a palpable defect proximal to the superior pole of the patella coupled with the patient's inability to perform a straight leg raise and confirmed on radiographs, ultrasonography, or magnetic resonance imaging scan. When the extensor mechanism is disrupted, operative repair is indicated. Two common techniques have been described for repair: the transosseous) repair and the suture anchor repair, and both have shown good clinical results. Nevertheless, gap formation is always a concern, and there is no consensus if one technique is superior to the other in this matter. We propose a low-cost, tensionable, transosseous anatomic repair that results in a tight construction.
