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

Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of open wedge high tibial osteotomy (OWHTO) in treatment of medial unicompartmental knee osteoarthritis (MUKOA). Methods: A clinical data of 61 cases with MUKOA who were treated with OWHTO between January 2015 and January 2017 were retrospectively analyzed. There are 14 males and 47 females with an average age of 52.8 years (mean, 44-60 years). The body mass index ranged from 19.1 to 34.7 kg/m Results: The operation time was 49-85 minutes (mean, 66.5 minutes). The length of incision was 10-13 cm (mean, 11.0 cm). The total overt blood loss was 80-210 mL (mean, 139.1 mL). The postoperative bed-rest time was 1-10 days (mean, 4.7 days). All patients were followed up 12-24 months (mean, 17.3 months). The bearing area of tibial platform at 3 months after operation was 60.3%-66.8%, with an average of 63.4%. At 3 and 6 months after operation, the HSS score was 79.1±4.2 and 85.3±3.1 respectively, and the VAS score was 1.7±0.7 and 0.6±0.5 respectively, all showing significant differences ( Conclusion: OWHTO is an ideal choice for treating MUKOA with less postoperative complications. The force line could be corrected by OWHTO. However, the preoperative preparations are very important, especially that the open angle should be measured accurately.
