Sport-Specific Considerations in ACL Reconstruction: Diagnostic Evaluation and Graft Selection.
Review in Diagnostics (Basel, Switzerland), 2026. 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
Knee biomechanical demands vary across different sports due to sport- and position-specific patterns of muscle recruitment. To return to performance, athletes must adequately restore knee kinematics to regain control over the same sport mechanics that led to the initial anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury. ACL graft selection should therefore minimize donor site morbidity and support sport-specific demands. This study aims to address the available evidence and guide surgical graft choice in athletes. A literature search of PubMed, MEDLINE, Scopus, and Web of Science (up to September 2025) assessed BPTB, hamstring, and quadriceps tendon autografts. Outcomes included revision, graft survival, return to sport, time to return, PROMs, anterior knee pain, donor site morbidity, and prognostic factors (age, sex). Sports were classified as pivoting, contact/collision, or endurance/non-pivoting. The results were synthesized narratively. In
