Complete ACL injuries are associated with higher static tibial subluxation than partial ACL injuries or intact ACLs measured on MRI.

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
Purpose: To investigate static tibial subluxation on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) as a potential method to quantify rotatory knee instability and differentiate between complete anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries, partial ACL injuries, and intact ACL. Methods: Consecutive patients who underwent knee arthroscopy between 2016 and 2021 were retrospectively reviewed and divided into two groups according to arthroscopically verified ACL status: partial (p-ACL-I) or complete ACL injury (c-ACL-I). Patients with p-ACL-I required ACL-augmentation. The control group with an intraoperatively confirmed intact ACL (i-ACL) and a meniscus injury was 1:1 matched to p-ACL-I considering age, sex and body mass index (BMI). Static tibial subluxation in the medial (MC) and lateral compartment (LC) was measured on preoperative MRI. Intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC) were calculated for inter- and intrarater reliability. Pairwise Results: The final analysis included 136 patients, 30 patients with p-ACL-I (8 female, 28 ± 10 years, BMI 27 ± 5 kg/m Conclusion: Residual fibres in p-ACL-I stabilized static anterior tibial translation. Preoperative static MRI subluxation measurement may help to differentiate between c-ACL-I and p-ACL-I who require surgical intervention, as an adjunct to the decisive dynamic examination of knee instability. Level of Evidence: Level III.
