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.

2 · The registry

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

objectivesThe present study had the objective of evaluating the effect of the use of intraoperative radioscopy in cases of primary knee arthroplasty, on the final alignment of the tibial component.

methodsPatients who underwent total knee arthroplasty (TKA) between April 13, 2013, and April 20, 2013, were included in the study. These patients were evaluated retrospectively and two groups were identified: one in which intraoperative radioscopy was used to assess the positioning of the tibial component during the surgery and the other in which this resource was not used.

resultsThe mean angle of alignment of the tibial component in relation to the tibial diaphysis was greater in the group without use of intraoperative radioscopy (90.82) than in the group with radioscopy (90.63), which was a statistically significant result (p < 0.05).

conclusionUse of intraoperative radioscopy during TKA produced a better mean angle of alignment between the tibial component and the tibial diaphysis, in comparison with nonuse.
