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.

Abstract

purposeKnee osteoarthritis (OA) is a musculoskeletal disorder that may have a heavy impact on the patients' quality of life. Intra-articular collagen injection may be a safe adjuvant. Recently, CHondroGrid (CG), a hydrolyzed (< 3 kDa) bovine collagen injectable formulation, has been placed on the market. The aim of this study was to investigate the safety and performance profile of CG.

methodsPatients affected by Kellgren Lawrence grade 1 to 4 knee OA and BMI < 30 were treated by administering three CG injections of 2 ml (4 mg) each (at 15 days and 45 days from the first one, respectively) and were followed up for six months after the last administration. Clinical records were retrospectively assessed to compare VAS, Lequesne and WOMAC total, pain, stiffness, and physical function scores collected at baseline and 15, 45, and 225 days after the first injection.

resultsAt the last follow-up, 70 patients (37 men and 33 women, aged 57.1 ± 14.5 years) treated with CG showed a 50% reduction in their median Lequesne score, a 50% reduction in their VAS score at rest and moving, and a ≥ 50% reduction for all other scores under consideration.

conclusionsCG may be a safe and effective adjuvant in the treatment of symptomatic knee OA.
