Total Thumb Carpometacarpal Joint Arthroplasty: A Retrospective Functional Study of 28 MOOVIS Prostheses.
Article in Hand (New York, N.Y.), 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 21 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
backgroundTrapeziometacarpal prostheses have been used for more than 50 years in the treatment of first carpometacarpal joint arthritis. Even though this technique is more expensive than trapeziectomy, it has many advantages such as faster convalescence with better patient comfort and improved strength and range of motion. The aim of this study was to report the early functional results of a patient cohort treated with a dual mobility thumb carpometacarpal joint prosthesis.
methodsA retrospective study was performed to assess the functional results of 25 patients treated for trapeziometacarpal advanced osteoarthritis (Eaton and Littler stage III) with 28 MOOVIS prostheses. Preoperative and postoperative assessments included pain, range of motion, and pinch and grip strength. The average follow-up time was 27.5 months.
resultsThe mean pain score measured by a visual analog scale was 8 preoperatively and 1 postoperatively. The mean preoperative Kapandji opposition score was 7 and counter-opposition score was 1; postoperative scores were 10 and 4, respectively. The grip strength improved after the surgery and the results were compared separately between dominant and nondominant sides. Final functional results were good: the mean Quick Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand Questionnaire score was 12, and the mean Michigan Hand Outcomes score was 87%.
conclusionsTotal joint arthroplasty with a dual mobility prosthesis appears to be a satisfactory solution in our series. The absence of prosthesis instability encourages us to recommend this technique for the treatment of advanced trapeziometacarpal osteoarthritis for people having an activity without too many manual constraints.
