Knee kinematics of severe medial knee osteoarthritis showed tibial posterior translation and external rotation: a cross-sectional study.
Article in Aging clinical and experimental research, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 19 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
backgroundKnee osteoarthritis (OA) gradually reduces knee function and limits activities of daily living with age. However, the progression of abnormal kinematics of the knee in knee OA is unclear.
aimsThis study aimed to clarify the relationship between stage of knee OA and abnormal knee kinematics and to identify a strategy for prevention of knee OA.
methodsA total of 112 knees of 99 patients (45 men/54 women; 55.9 ± 18.2 years), comprising 28 (27/1) in Kellgren-Lawrence grade 0, 18 (8/10) in grade 1, 27 (2/25) in grade 2, 28 (6/22) in grade 3, and 11 (3/8) in grade 4, were enrolled in this cross-sectional study. In vivo knee kinematics was obtained using a three-dimensional-to-two-dimensional registration technique utilizing CT-based bone models and lateral fluoroscopy during knee extension-flexion in an upright sitting position and squatting.
resultsThe external rotation angle of the tibia relative to the femur was greater in grade 3/4 knees than in grade 0/1 knees and tibial posterior translation was greater in grade 3/4 knees than in grade 0-2 knees. DISCUSSION: Age-related changes in muscle activity and joint instability are considered to be the cause of these abnormal kinematics.
conclusionsAs the stage of knee OA progresses, there was a tendency toward increasing tibial external rotation and tibial posterior translation during knee extension-flexion in sitting position and squatting. Prevention of the progress of the abnormal knee kinematics may prevent the progression of the knee OA.
