[Update on navigation in total knee arthroplasty. Where are we today and what lies in the future?].
Review in Der Orthopade, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.
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
backgroundThe implantation of an artificial knee is one of the most common operative interventions in German hospitals. Navigation procedures have developed into an integral component of such interventions in the operating theatres of many clinics.
methodsFor orthopedic surgeons who want to implement an as exact as possible reconstruction of the mechanical leg axis and require intraoperative control of the three dimensional positioning of components and/or the capsular ligament situation, navigation is a well-proven intraoperative tool. The immediate intraoperative control possibility of bone resection and capsular ligament soft tissue balancing means that navigation is a valuable instrument for the biomechanical fundamental understanding in training operations for further education of orthopedic surgeons in training. DEVELOPMENTS: The greater precision obtained by the implementation of the procedure has not yet been conclusively reflected in an improved postoperative knee function or an increased durability of prostheses. New developments in navigated knee prostheses are pinless navigation and navigation kinematics. In pinless navigation the conventional reference marker system fixed in the femur and shin bones is replaced by a non-invasive reference system. With the aid of navigation kinematics it is possible to image the tibiofemoral and patellofemoral movement dynamics, intraoperatively. PERSPECTIVE: The aim of the next generation navigation systems for computer-assisted knee prosthetics is implant positioning aligned to the individual anatomy of patients with high and stable range of movement for optimum patellar guidance and kinematics of the artificial joint.
