Incidence and predictors of total knee arthroplasty following knee arthroscopy.
Article in Journal of orthopaedics, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
objectiveThe purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of knee arthroscopy (KA) in patients with symptomatic meniscal tears or mechanical symptoms and OA, by using conversion to TKA as a final outcome measure.
methodsRetrospective review of all patients with OA who underwent KA in our practice.
results1215 KAs were reviewed; 3.9% underwent conversion to TKA at an average of 3.2 years.
conclusionKA plays a role in delaying TKA in knees with meniscal tears and mechanical symptoms with concurrent OA.
