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

Purpose: To quantitatively evaluate differences in area proportions and Young's modulus among anatomical subregions of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) insertion, including direct and indirect insertions as well as anteromedial (AM) and posterolateral (PL) bundles, and to assess their impact on local stress distribution. Methods: Micro-CT was utilized to quantify the area proportions of four anatomically defined subregions of porcine ACL insertions ( Results: The direct region occupied a significantly larger area proportion than the indirect region (54% vs. 46%, Conclusions: Distinct regional differences in area proportions and Young's moduli were found at the ACL insertion, and these characteristics substantially affect local stress distribution. Level of Evidence: Level N/A.
