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

Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction is a surgical procedure that has largely undergone changes; its techniques have improved over the years to achieve the most appropriate graft choice, preparation, positioning, and fixation, thereby preserving graft survival. Residual rotational instability is largely present in patients who receive only anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction, leading to a higher rerupture rate, especially in higher-risk patients. Lateral extra-articular tenodesis is part of the larger family of lateral extra-articular procedures that aim to lengthen graft life span by protecting it from excessive tibial internal rotation. Various techniques with different implants have been described to perform this reconstruction. This Technical Note presents a modified Ellison technique that obtains fixation through a knotless all-suture anchor. This technique is faster, is less invasive, and provides equally effective results.
