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

introductionA recent study has challenged the premise that a patient-specific (PS)-designed total knee arthroplasty (TKA) component has better clinical survival than an off-the-shelf (OTS) prosthesis.

methodsWe developed the finite element models for PS TKA and OTS TKA with 5° varus and valgus malalignment and 5° internal and external malrotations.

resultsContact stress on the medial side of the insert increased with internal femoral malrotation and varus tibial malalignment, but it decreased with external femoral malrotation and varus tibial malalignment in both PS TKA and OTS TKA. An increase in ligament force occurred in valgus malalignment and external malrotation, and in particular, the force exerted on the medial collateral ligament increased. However, PS TKA provided better biomechanical effects than did the standard OTS TKA with malpositioning in TKA. DISCUSSION: These results emphasize the importance of precise surgical preservation in regard to the TKA position.
