Fixation of Osteochondral Lesions of the Knee Using Autologous Bone Pegs: Functional Evaluation of a Case Series.
Article in Revista brasileira de ortopedia, 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
Objective: To evaluate the clinical and functional outcomes of patients who underwent fixation of traumatic osteochondral knee fractures using autologous bone pegs. Methods: We conducted a retrospective cross-sectional study including 11 patients who underwent surgery between 2021 and 2024. Clinical, radiographic, and functional outcomes were evaluated during a mean follow-up of 33.9 ± 10.6 months, including functional assessment using the International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) Subjective Knee Form. Results: The mean patient age was of 20.3 ± 5.4 years, with a predominance of patellar lesions (81,8%). The radiographic evaluation demonstrated consolidation of the osteochondral fragment in all cases, without signs of displacement or fixation failure. The mean IKDC score was of 75.0 ± 17.1 points. There were no major complications or reoperations. Conclusion: Fixation of traumatic osteochondral knee fractures with autologous bone pegs resulted in adequate consolidation and satisfactory functional outcomes in this case series, representing a safe, effective, and low-cost biological alternative to manage these lesions.
