Reconstruction of the Medial Collateral Ligament and the Posterior Oblique Ligament With a Flat Tibialis Allograft: the "Trifid Flat Reconstruction".
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 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
We describe a technique for grade III medial-side injuries (medial collateral ligament [MCL] + postero-oblique ligament [POL]) using a single tibialis anterior or posterior allograft with 2 tunnels. This technique reconstructs the 2 bundles of the MCL and the POL, taking inspiration from Lind technique. This offers several improvements over the classic Lind technique: it accounts for the flat shape of the MCL and the POL, the anterior strand for the deep MCL reconstruction is isometric and more oblique, and the femoral implantation site of the superficial MCL is more anatomic.
