Research gap analysis derived from 2 medicine papers in our local library.

The gap

No single lateral extra-articular tenodesis technique has been demonstrated as clinically superior, yet direct biomechanical and clinical comparison studies between specific LET constructs (ALL reconstruction vs. LEAP vs. ALLR) with matched patient populations and identical outcome metrics are absent. Head-to-head randomized controlled trials comparing different graft materials and fixation methods are needed.; Need to actively conduct prospective randomized controlled trials to provide...
