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

backgroundA study was designed to quantify the extent of porous osseointegration at the prosthesis-bone interface in the Prestige LP prosthesis containing a plasma-sprayed titanium coating.

methodsUsing an anterior surgical approach, cervical disc arthroplasty was performed in 8 mature male goats at the C3-C4 segment, followed by implantation of the Prestige LP prosthesis. The vertebral specimens were examined using microcomputed tomograph for histomorphometric quantification, and proceeded by routine paraffin processing for histological observation. Hence, the porous osseointegration at the prosthesis-bone interface was evaluated based on histologic and histomorphometric analyses.

resultsAt 6 months after surgery, there was no evidence of prosthesis migration, loosening, subsidence, or neurologic or vascular complications. Based on gross histologic analysis, there was excellent porous ingrowth at the prosthesis-bone interface, without significant histopathologic changes. Histomorphometric analysis at the prosthesis-bone interface indicated the mean porous ingrowth of 48.5% ± 10.4% and the total ingrowth range of 36.6 to 59.8%.

conclusionsAs the first comprehensive in vivo investigation into the Prestige LP prosthesis, this project established a successful animal model in the evaluation of cervical disc arthroplasty. Moreover, histomorphometric analysis of porous ingrowth at the prosthesis-bone interface was more favorable for cervical disc arthroplasty with the Prestige LP prosthesis compared to historical reports of appendicular total joint arthroplasty.
