Oxidized Zirconium Total Knee Arthroplasty Implant Failure in a Patient With Knee Instability.
Article in Arthroplasty today, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Oxidized zirconium was introduced as an alternative bearing surface to decrease polyethylene wear and reduce aseptic mechanical failure of hip and knee arthroplasties. Oxidized zirconium combines the strength of a metal with wear properties of ceramic, proposing increased survivorship of implant components, and possible decreased rate of revision. Despite a harder surface than cobalt-chromium, the substrate of zirconium is a softer metal. Although uncommon, prior reports have described accelerated wear and severe metallosis after femoral head dislocation in oxidized zirconium total hip arthroplasty; however, this has not been described in total knee arthroplasty. We report a case of an oxidized zirconium total knee arthroplasty failure in a patient with knee instability. This is the first report of catastrophic failure of an oxidized zirconium total knee arthroplasty implant.
