Abstract

The aims of this meta-analysis were to determine the sensitivity and specificity of the Lachman, pivot shift and anterior drawer test for acute complete ACL rupture in the office setting and under anaesthesia. It was hypothesized that the Lachman test is the most sensitive and the pivot shift test the most specific. Secondly, it was hypothesized that the sensitivity and specificity of all three exams increases when the examination is performed under anaesthesia.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 24. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 23 November 2022.
All research outputs
#1,424,440
of 23,814,046 outputs
Outputs from Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy
#115
of 2,755 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#9,047
of 177,785 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy
#3
of 54 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,814,046 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 94th percentile: it's in the top 10% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 2,755 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 6.2. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 95% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 177,785 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 94% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 54 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 96% of its contemporaries.
