1 · What the graph read from it

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.

Abstract

STUDY

designRandomized controlled trial.

objectivesTo examine the effects of weight-bearing biofeedback training on weight-bearing symmetry and functional joint moments following unilateral total knee arthroplasty.

backgroundIndividuals after unilateral total knee arthroplasty place more weight on the nonsurgical limb compared to the surgical limb during function. It is unknown whether targeted intervention can improve function in the surgical limb and resolve altered movement patterns.

methodsTwenty-six patients were randomly assigned to 2 groups (reload or control). The reload group had a standard-of-care rehabilitation augmented with weight-bearing biofeedback training, and the control group had a dose-matched standard-of-care rehabilitation. Lower-limb weight-bearing ratios were measured preoperatively and 6 and 26 weeks after total knee arthroplasty during a 5-time sit-to-stand test (FTSST) and walking. Secondary outcomes were FTSST time, walking speed, and lower-limb joint moments during the FTSST and walking.

resultsNo between-group differences were found in weight-bearing ratios. Five-time sit-to-stand test time improved in the reload group compared to the control group at 6 (P = .021) and 26 weeks (P = .021). There were no between-group differences in knee extension moment during the FTSST. Surgical-limb knee extension moments during walking increased from baseline to 26 weeks in the reload group and decreased in the control group (P = .008).

conclusionWeight-bearing biofeedback training had no effect on functional weight-bearing symmetry or knee extension moments during the FTSST. However, the biofeedback training resulted in increases of knee extension moments during gait and improved FTSST times. Trial registered at ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT01333189). Level of Evidence Therapy, level 2b.
