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

PurposeTo evaluate the quality, reliability, and educational value of TikTok videos on cartilage surgery. It was hypothesized that overall quality would be low but higher in videos by healthcare professionals (HCP) and those with educational content.MethodsTikTok was searched (September 22-25, 2025) using terms related to cartilage surgery and repair. Of 800 retrieved videos, 108 met inclusion criteria. Video metrics, uploader type, and content type were recorded. Quality and reliability were assessed using the DISCERN instrument,
