Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction in the modern era: A patient-centered approach.
Article in World journal of clinical cases, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries are among the most frequent knee pathologies, with athletes-particularly females and those in pivot-heavy sports such as soccer, basketball, volleyball, and skiing-at increased risk. The success of ACL reconstruction is multifactorial, relying on individualized graft selection, surgical precision, patient-specific characteristics, and optimized rehabilitation. Despite the availability of various graft options-hamstring tendon, bone-patellar tendon-bone, and quadriceps tendon-no single type has demonstrated clear superiority, reinforcing the need for patient-tailored approaches based on anatomical, functional, and age-related factors. Surgical techniques continue to evolve, with adaptations such as physeal-sparing methods for skeletally immature patients and minimally invasive procedures aimed at reducing morbidity and improving recovery. Rehabilitation is a critical determinant of functional outcomes. Current evidence supports immediate mobilization, early weight-bearing, and initiation of neuromuscular and strength training, while routine use of continuous passive motion and bracing is discouraged, except in multi-ligament injuries. Prehabilitation is recommended, though accelerated rehabilitation remains controversial. Implant choice and fixation strategy are also essential to long-term success. The use of materials that reduce the risk of chronic complications and support biological integration is increasingly favored. Nevertheless, rare mechanical failures emphasize the need for accurate tunnel placement, appropriate implant selection, and vigilant postoperative monitoring. Outcomes are further influenced by patient-specific variables, including bone quality, metabolic status, and physical activity levels. Optimal ACL reconstruction results from a comprehensive, patient-centered strategy that integrates surgical accuracy, individualized rehabilitation, and continuous follow-up to minimize complications and enhance recovery.
