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 the incidence and management of complications associated with all-inside technique (AIT) anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR), and to compare postoperative outcomes between patients with successfully managed complications and complication-free controls. Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on patients undergoing AIT-ACLR. AIT-related complications were documented, with a minimum 24-month follow-up. Propensity score matching (PSM, 1:2 ratio) was used to compare the complication and non-complication groups. Knee function was assessed using the Lysholm Knee Score, International Knee Documentation Committee Subjective Score, and Tegner Activity Scale. Stability was measured with the Ligs Digital Arthrometer. Results: A total of 274 patients were included, with 45 patients (16.4%) experiencing AIT-related complications. Complications comprised tibial lateral subluxation (21 cases, 7.7%; mean displacement: 2.3 mm, range 2.0-2.5 mm), which resolved spontaneously in 4 patients (19.1%) by 1 month postoperatively and in the remaining cases by 3 months. Femoral suspensory button malposition occurred in 12 patients (4.4%), with only one case (8.3%) requiring immediate revision due to a 7.6 mm displacement. The others (mean displacement: 2.5 mm, range 2.1-3.0 mm) were managed conservatively. Cortical breach at the tibial tunnel exit (7 cases, 2.6%) and flip drill bit breakage (5 cases, 1.8%) were addressed intraoperatively. Following PSM (complication group: Conclusion: Postoperative knee function and stability demonstrated improvement following AIT-ACLR. Although appropriately managed complications did not substantially compromise clinical outcomes, the findings emphasize the importance of technical vigilance, intraoperative complication management, and preventive strategies to optimize surgical outcomes. Level of Evidence: Level III, case-control study.
