Quantitative mapping of meniscus morphology using advanced imaging analysis in young patients.
Article in Scientific reports, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Sex-based differences in the meniscus have been examined, however, detailed location-specific meniscal size and MR-derived structural properties across meniscal regions are not well established. The proposed advanced imaging method allows for localized measurements of meniscus cross-sectional area (CSA) and signal intensity (SI) along the meniscal arc length in females and males. We hypothesized that females would exhibit smaller CSA values than males, when normalized to knee size, and that SI profiles would not differ between sexes. MR images of non-injured knees from 105 individuals (60 females; age 13-35 years) were analyzed to quantify CSA and SI along the medial and lateral meniscal arc lengths. Measurements were normalized to knee size to enable sex-based comparisons. Normalized lateral meniscus CSA did not differ significantly between females and males. In the medial meniscus, normalized anterior CSA was significantly smaller in females than males (0.04 mm
