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

introductionSevere ankle hemophilic arthropathy can be a calamitous sign of severe hemophilia with important inferences for activities of daily living.

aimsTo summarize the contemporary, accessible information on Total Ankle Replacement (TAR) for ankle hemophilic arthropathy.

methodsA search of Cochrane Library and PubMed (MEDLINE) regarding the role of TAR in ankle hemophilic arthropathy.

resultsThe insufficient information regarding the results of TAR for hemophilic arthropathy is confined to scanty case series and case reports. An evaluation of the accessible literature reveals encouraging but inconstant outcomes. The reported rate of adverse events is 33%. The reported anticipated survival of TAR is 94% at 5 years, 85% at 10 years and 70% at 15 years.

conclusionWhereas people with advanced hemophilic arthropathy of the ankle are prone to ameliorate pain and range of motion following TAR, there is deficient knowledge to regularly recommend its use. Adverse events and infection percentages are disturbing. Moreover, the lack of survival analysis knowledge makes it difficult to assess the benefit to people with hemophilia. TAR is a demanding surgical procedure and its survival is not comparable to that after hip or knee replacement.
