Observational studies reporting postoperative outcomes in patients with and without DM undergoing ACLR were included. Pooled risk ratios (RRs) with 95% CIs were calculated using fixed- or random-effects models, as appropriate. The primary outcome was revision, and secondary outcomes included infection, surgical-site infection (SSI), readmission, and venous thromboembolism (VTE). For studies with zero events in 1 arm, a continuity correction of 0.5 was applied to enable computation of pooled estimates and avoid division-by-zero errors. Risk of bias assessment across included studies was conducted using the Risk of Bias Assessment tool for Non-randomized Studies of Interventions Version 2.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      A total of 25 studies met the inclusion criteria.
