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

purposeThe decision to resurface the patella during total knee arthroplasty (TKA) remains controversial. This prospective cohort study aimed to evaluate the outcome and survivorship of the native patella in computer-assisted TKA (CAS TKA) implanted for primary knee osteoarthritis, and to determine the predictive factors of secondary patellar resurfacing (SPR).

methodsA prospective cohort of 273 cementless ultra-congruent mobile-bearing CAS TKA implanted without patellar resurfacing was included in our total joint registry. Patients were evaluated with the International Knee Society (IKS) and Hospital for Special Surgery Patellar (HSSP) scores. Radiographic evaluation was focused on the patellofemoral (PF) compartment to assess: the patellar dysplasia (Wiberg classification), PF osteoarthritis (Iwano classification), femoral trochlear dysplasia (femoral sulcus angle), patellar maltracking (patellar tilt and lateralization), and patella height (Blackburne-Peel ratio).

resultsAt a six-year median follow-up, the CAS TKA survivorship using SPR as end-point was 95% (range, 91-99%). The IKS and HSSP improved significantly after SPR (p = 0.001 and 0.004, respectively). No significant difference in the IKS and HSSP was detected between TKA with native patella and SPR-TKA at latest follow-up. Importantly, four pre-operative radiographic PF parameters were significantly associated with SPR: higher stages of patellar dysplasia and PF osteoarthritis, and higher sulcus angle and patellar lateralization (hazard ratios = 5.1 to 11.6, p = 0.009 to 0.04).

conclusionWhen preserving the native patella, surgeons should be aware of pre-operative PF radiographic parameters that could influence the outcome and survivorship of CAS TKA leading to SPR. Particularly, evidence of PF dysplasia, osteoarthritis and maltracking should be determined pre-operatively to resurface the patella at the time of TKA. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Therapeutic Level II (prospective cohort study).
