Simultaneous bilateral total knee arthroplasty in patients with end-stage hemophilic arthropathy: a mean follow-up of 6 years.
Article in Scientific reports, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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
To investigate the safety, cost-effectiveness, and clinical outcomes of simultaneous bilateral total knee arthroplasty (TKA) in hemophilic arthropathy (HA), the requirements for transfusions, complications, costs, hospital stays, Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) knee scores, knee range of motion (ROM) and revision rates were compared between simultaneous bilateral and unilateral TKA in HA patients. A total of 36 patients and 54 knees were included. Compared to the unilateral group, the bilateral group did not require more transfusions (2.39 ± 3.13 vs 0.83 ± 1.38 units of RBCs, p > 0.05) or consumption of coagulation factors (50091.67 ± 25168.5 vs 46477.78 ± 11348.32 IU, p > 0.05), complications rate (13/36 vs 6/18, p > 0.05), hospital stay (32.39 ± 19.77 vs 29.11 ± 12.67 days, p > 0.05), or costs excluding prostheses (14945.41 ± 6634.35 vs 14742.12 ± 5746.78 US dollars, p > 0.05). Additionally, the two groups exhibited similar medium-term knee HSS scores (83.67 ± 7.11 vs 81.00 ± 10.35, p > 0.05) and ROM (89.39° ± 13.66° vs 88.91° ± 12.90°, p > 0.05). Our data indicate that bilateral TKA is a safe and cost-effective treatment for HA with similar medium-term results compared to unilateral TKA.
