[Simultaneous Ruptures of All Four Extensor Mechanism Tendons in Both Knees: a Rare and Challenging Case in a Chronic Kidney Disease Patient].

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
We report a rare and remarkable case of simultaneous bilateral injuries to all four extensor mechanism tendons in a 39-year-old male with a history of diabetes and chronic kidney disease. Physical examination revealed pronounced swelling, palpable gaps above and below both patellae, and complete loss of active knee extension. Imaging confirmed complete ruptures of the right quadriceps and left patellar tendons, alongside partial ruptures of the left quadriceps and right patellar tendons. Surgical repair was performed using suture anchors to ensure secure tendon reattachment. Postoperatively, both knees were immobilized with hinged braces for six weeks, followed by a structured rehabilitation program. At the 12-month follow-up, the patient demonstrated full recovery, with complete restoration of knee range of motion and muscle strength.
