Comparison of a novel handheld accelerometer-based navigation system and conventional instrument for performing distal femoral resection in total knee arthroplasty: a randomized controlled trial.
Article in Annals of translational medicine, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
backgroundThis prospective study aimed to compare the efficacy of a novel, hand-held, accelerometer-based navigation system (i-JOIN knee navigation system) for distal femoral resection in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) with conventional instrument.
methodsA multi-center, double-blinded, randomized controlled trial (RCT) was conducted. A total of 79 consecutive patients scheduled for primary TKA were enrolled and divided into navigation group (39 patients) and conventional group (40 patients). Post-operative mechanical and component position were evaluated through full-leg weight bearing X-ray. Pre-operatively and 1 week post-operatively, adverse events were recorded. Intraoperative surgical time and blood loss were also recorded.
resultsThe mean outlier of 180° neutral mechanical axis was 1.60° (SD 1.11°) in navigation group and 2.30° (SD 2.06°) in conventional group (P=0.0917). Thirty-eight patients (97.4%) in navigation group and 35 patients (87.5%) in conventional group had an alignment which was ≤3°away from the neutral mechanical axis (P=0.2007). α angle between the navigation group and conventional group was not statistically different (89.81°
conclusionsi-JOIN knee navigation system had equivalent results for distal femoral resection in TKA compared with the conventional technique.
