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

objectiveTo investigate the effect of body mass index (BMI) on the short- and medium-term effectiveness of unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) in the treatment of anterior medial compartmental osteoarthritis of knee joint.

methodsThe clinical data of 55 patients (61 knees) with anterior medial compartmental osteoarthritis of knee joint treated with minimally invasive UKA between May 2014 and May 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. According to BMI, the patients were divided into 3 groups: normal body mass group [group A, BMI 18.50-24.99 kg/m

resultsThere was no significant difference in the operation time, the intraoperative dominant blood loss, and the postoperative decreased amount of hemoglobin at 1 week among 3 groups (

conclusionFor obese and overweight patients with anterior medial compartmental osteoarthritis of the knee joint, the use of minimally invasive UKA can achieve satisfactory short- and medium-term effectiveness, and the long-term effectiveness needs further follow-up.
