All-Arthroscopic Anterior and Posterior Arthrolysis for Extension Deficit After Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction.

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
Persistent knee extension deficit after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction is a disabling complication often associated with intra-articular fibrosis within the intercondylar notch and posterior capsular adhesions. This article presents a safe, efficient, and reproducible all-arthroscopic technique for treating such deficits via combined anterior and posterior arthrolysis. The procedure includes resection of cyclops lesions and anterior fibrotic tissue, followed by posterior capsular release using posteromedial, trans-septal, and posterolateral portals. In contrast to open approaches, this technique allows controlled capsular release while limiting surgical morbidity. Intraoperative assessment typically shows restoration of full extension, with reduced operative time and limited soft tissue trauma. This minimally invasive technique provides an effective option for early management of knee stiffness following anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction and warrants further validation through prospective clinical studies.
