[Total knee arthroplasty. Patient-specific instruments and implants].
Review in Der Orthopade, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
This article describes the concept and surgical technique of patient-specific total knee arthroplasty. Patient-specific implants and instruments are designed and fabricated based on computed tomography (CT) data of the leg. The disposable patient-specific drill guides and cutting-jigs are manufactured taking into consideration the anatomical and biomechanical axes of the knee joint and mediating the efficient pre-navigation of the osseous saw-cuts, without the need for additional navigation or balancing aids. The surgical plan is made on the basis of the CT data. The implantation technique comprises the following steps: distal femoral resection, tibial resection, balancing and femur preparation, tibia preparation, optional patellar resurfacing, trialling of the test components, and implantation of the final components. By using this patient-specific implant system, which includes not only personalized, single-use instruments, but also individualized implants, the surgeon is able to provide endoprosthetic treatment that broadly restores the patient's own knee anatomy and knee kinematics. Preliminary studies have proven the concept and data on this technology are promising so far; however, like a new implant, they are usually limited. In particular, comparative long-term clinical data are still to come.
