Total knee arthroplasty status and patient-reported, knee-related quality of life over a 4-year follow-up period: data from the osteoarthritis initiative.
Article in Patient preference and adherence, 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
purposeTo examine the relationship between baseline total knee arthroplasty (TKA) status and patient-reported, knee-related quality of life (QoL) over a 4-year follow-up relative to no knee osteoarthritis (OA). PATIENTS AND
methodsData from the Osteoarthritis Initiative were included, comprising 4,674 adults aged 45-79 years at baseline. Patients were categorized into four groups: no knee OA (n=3,711), non-TKA (n=902), pre-TKA (n=36), and post-TKA (n=25). QoL was measured using the Knee Injury Osteoarthritis Outcome Score-QoL subscale. General linear mixed models were used for the relationship between TKA and QoL.
resultsAfter adjusting for covariates, a reduced QoL was noted for patients in the non-TKA (mean [standard error], -13.97 [0.73];
conclusionNon-, pre-, and post-TKA status is associated with a lower QoL.
