1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Proximal hamstring avulsions, often seen in active adults, result from high-energy eccentric loading during hip flexion with knee extension. Open repair remains the gold standard, allowing direct visualization and sciatic nerve protection. Low-profile all-suture anchors have emerged as an alternative to traditional metal or PEEK (polyether ether ketone) devices. This technical note describes a reproducible technique using 3 Q-Fix all-suture anchors (Smith & Nephew, London, England) in a triangular tension-slide configuration. This construct offers strong anatomic fixation with minimal implant burden and reduced bone loss. It is particularly advantageous in cases of tendon retraction or poor tissue quality and is broadly adaptable, including for high-demand populations.
