Chronic Patellar Tendon Reconstruction Using Ipsilateral Peroneus Longus Autograft.
Article in Arthroscopy techniques, 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
Chronic patellar tendon rupture is a rare and challenging injury that compromises knee extension and overall function. Conventional repair often requires augmentation or reconstruction using autografts, allografts, or synthetic materials, with most techniques involving transpatellar tunnels, which increase the risk of iatrogenic fracture. This technical note describes an approach for chronic patellar tendon repair using an ipsilateral peroneus longus autograft in a figure-of-eight configuration, avoiding transpatellar tunnels. Fixation is achieved with suture anchors at the tibial tuberosity and a single transverse tibial tunnel. This method provides robust biomechanical stability, minimizes complications, and leverages the advantages of the peroneus longus graft, including consistent size and low donor-site morbidity.
