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

backgroundSingle-radius (SR) prostheses and multi-radius (MR) prostheses have different theoretical advantages; however, there has been a paucity of evaluations comparing the two. This study was designed to compare the 10-year clinical, radiological, and survival outcomes of SR and MR posterior-stabilized prostheses in total knee arthroplasty (TKA).

methodsIn this retrospective cohort study, 220 consecutive patients undergoing TKA between October 2006 and October 2007 were divided into the SR group (106 patients, Stryker Scorpio NRG) and the MR group (114 patients, DePuy Sigma PFC), with a minimum follow-up of 10 years. Clinical, functional, and radiological outcomes, as well as satisfaction rates and survival results, were evaluated.

resultsHospital for Special Surgery and Short Form-12 health survey scores were all significantly improved in both groups at the final follow-up (P < 0.05), but the groups did not differ. The SR group had significantly less anterior knee pain (AKP) and painless crepitation (P < 0.05). Radiological results in terms of radiolucent lines and component position angle showed no differences between groups. The Kaplan-Meier survival curve estimates at 10 years were not significantly different between the groups (P = 0.4172).

conclusionBoth SR and MR posterior-stabilized prostheses can lead to satisfactory outcomes. The SR prosthesis design gave less anterior knee pain than did the MR prostheses. Two prostheses showed no differences in terms of clinical scales, radiological results, satisfaction rates, and survival results at a long-term follow-up. More accurate measurements are required.
