Trends in same-day bilateral total knee arthroplasty.
Article in The Journal of arthroplasty, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers.
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
Between 2000 and 2009 demographics, comorbidity, complications, and 30-day mortality following same-day BTKA (SBTKA) in two high-volume institutions were obtained. Two 5-year periods were created to facilitate trend analysis. The percentage of SBTKA decreased by 36.2% in the latter period. A decline in mean age reflected mainly by a 50% decrease in patients >75 years was observed. The average LOS decreased (5.7 vs. 4.5 days). Overall, selected patients were healthier in the second period. The prevalence of CAD and obesity decreased, whereas hypercholesteremia increased. The overall complication rate decreased by 55.5%; reduction in cardiac adverse events and acute posthemorrhagic anemia was observed. The rate of PE and 30-day mortality was unchanged with time. A need for more selective preoperative screening for potential candidates of SBTKAs is indicated.
