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

Posterior cruciate ligament avulsion fractures of the tibia account for approximately 20% of knee ligament injuries. Currently, arthroscopic suture anchor bridge repair has been widely adopted because of its excellent biomechanical properties and long-term prognosis. However, traditional techniques require the anchor to be placed at a nearly vertical angle into the posterior tibial bone bed, presenting technical challenges such as limited vision and narrow operating space, which can lead to issues like anchor displacement or insufficient depth. To address these problems, this study introduces a reverse anchor repair technique, which not only simplifies the surgical steps and shortens the learning curve but also effectively avoids iatrogenic damage to adjacent vascular and neural structures.
