1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Multiligament knee injuries are challenging to manage and often require harvesting multiple grafts. Rectus femoris tendon autograft provides predictable length and diameter, making it a promising option for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction and combined procedures. In this technical note, we describe an arthroscopic technique for combined reconstruction of the ACL and medial-sided structure-the medial collateral ligament (MCL) and posterior oblique ligament-in the setting of acute ACL, MCL and posterior oblique ligament rupture. A single rectus femoris autograft is used to reconstruct both ACL and MCL in a continuous fashion, whereas an allograft is used for posterior oblique ligament reconstruction. This technique offers an efficient graft construct for combined ACL and MCL reconstruction, minimizes the need for multiple autograft harvests, preserves the hamstring tendons, and reduces the risk of tunnel convergence.
