Beyond the medial patellofemoral ligament: The role of concomitant bony procedures in recurrent patellar instability.
Review in Bulletin of the Hospital for Joint Disease (2013), 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
abstractRecurrent patellar instability is a complex condition influenced by both soft tissue insufficiency and a spectrum of bony abnormalities. Although medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction is the cornerstone of treatment, it may not address all contributing factors-particularly in patients with malalignment, trochlear dysplasia, or abnormal patellar height. This study explores the indications, techniques, and outcomes of adjunctive bony procedures including tibial tubercle osteotomy, trochleoplasty, and derotational distal femoral osteotomies. Ultimately, the goal is to integrate soft tissue and bony procedures in a patient-specific manner to reduce recurrence and preserve long-term joint function. This synthesis aims to offer an up-to-date framework for approaching a challenging condition with growing treatment complexity.
