A Feasibility Study for Improved Physical Activity After Total Knee Arthroplasty.
Trial report in Journal of aging and physical activity, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 30 papers, 6 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
Physical activity outcomes are poor following total knee arthroplasty (TKA). The purpose was to evaluate feasibility of a physical activity feedback intervention for patients after TKA. Participants completing conventional TKA rehabilitation were randomized to a physical activity feedback (PAF; n = 22) or control (CTL; n = 23) group. The PAF intervention included real-time activity feedback, weekly action planning, and monthly group support meetings (12 weeks). The CTL group received attention control education. Feasibility was assessed using retention, adherence, dose goal attainment, and responsiveness with pre- and postintervention testing. The PAF group had 100% retention, 92% adherence (frequency of feedback use), and 65% dose goal attainment (frequency of meeting goals). The PAF group average daily step count increased from 5,754 (2,714) (pre) to 6,917 (3,445) steps/day (post). This study describes a feasible intervention to use as an adjunct to conventional rehabilitation for people with TKA.
