Current concept on assessment and management of anterior cruciate ligament injury in skeletally immature athletes.
Review in Journal of experimental orthopaedics, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
The incidence of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries in paediatric and skeletally immature patients is rising, proportionally to the worldwide spread of sport participation. However, differently from adults, injuries in young patients pose serious challenges regarding their management, especially when surgery is required. To date, controversies remain regarding the indications, timing of surgery and techniques for ACL reconstruction. This current concept provides a deep and detailed theoretical background of ACL injury and management in patients with open physis. Moreover, a practical algorithm of treatment is provided based on authors' experience and research and current evidence-based medicine (EBM). To optimise management and reduce the risks of either conservative or surgical treatment, a deep knowledge of the specific concepts related to paediatric patients is required. Level of Evidence: Level V.
