Failure of a Patellar Tendon Repair: Treatment with an Inlay Achilles Allograft.
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 1 paper.
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
Injury to the patellar tendon is most often seen in active, middle-aged, adults and can represent a significant injury. Although patellar tendon tears are common, surgical intervention often yields successful results. However, operative management can fail, and either rerupture or elongation of the repair may occur. Primary repair techniques are well described; however, revision repairs are rare and poorly described in the literature. This report aims to describe a technique for performing patellar tendon reconstruction using an Achilles allograft augmentation in a patient with multiply failed repairs. This approach may offer a reliable solution in complex cases where conventional methods have proven inadequate, potentially reducing the risk of further complications and improving patient outcomes.
