Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction With Hamstrings Autograft and Modified Lemaire Extra-articular Tenodesis Using a Single Femoral Tunnel.
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
The addition of a lateral extra-articular procedure to anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction has been shown to improve rotational stability and reduce graft failure rates, particularly in high-risk patients. However, tunnel convergence remains a major concern in combined anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction and lateral extra-articular procedure techniques, as it may compromise graft integrity and lead to failure. This technical note describes a technique for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction using a tripled semitendinosus graft, maintaining its tibial attachment, combined with a modified Lemaire extra-articular tenodesis. The femoral tunnel is created using an outside-in drilling technique, allowing both the intra-articular anterior cruciate ligament graft and the lateral extra-articular tenodesis graft to be secured within the same tunnel using a single interference screw. This approach simplifies the procedure by eliminating additional fixation devices and reducing the risk of tunnel convergence, while maintaining bone stock and cost-effectiveness.
