Backfilling Patellar and Tibial Harvest Sites Using Autologous Bone Reamings and Anterior Cruciate Ligament Remnant Tissue During Bone-Patellar Tendon-Bone Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction.
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 bone-patellar tendon-bone autograft remains a common and often first-choice option for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. Nevertheless, a subset of patients suffer from chronic anterior knee pain at the site of graft harvest. Although prior literature has indicated that backfilling of the patellar and tibial defects decreases the risk of donor site pain, sourcing and harvesting of the graft material, as well as the management of the paratenon and underlying tendon defect, remains variable. This technical note and associated video describe our preferred technique for the backfilling of these defects using both bone and soft-tissue grafts, with paratenon preservation to improve containment and potentially incorporation of grafted material.
