Abstract:PurposeTo determine the statistical fragility of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) which compare the use of quadriceps tendon (QT) autografts to either hamstring tendon (HT) or bone‐patellar tendon‐bone (BPTB) autografts in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR).MethodsA search was conducted across PubMed, MEDLINE and EMBASE databases for RCTs comparing QT autografts to HT or BPTB autografts in ACLR from inception to 21 April 2024. Studies that reported ≥1 statistically significant continuous outco… Show more
