Effects of body mass index on outcomes of total knee arthroplasty.
Article in European journal of orthopaedic surgery & traumatology : orthopedie traumatologie, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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
purposeThe aim of this study was to group the patients with total knee arthroplasty(TKA) surgery according to the World Health Organization (WHO) obesity classification and to evaluate the effects of body mass index (BMI) on complication rates, the functional and clinical outcomes of the patients after TKA.
methodsBetween 2011 and 2018, 588 patients who underwent TKA by a single surgeon were retrospectively evaluated. According to WHO's classification criteria, 588 patients were divided into 5 groups such as normal (< 25.0 kg/m
resultsThere was a statistically significant difference between the groups in terms of prosthesis infection or aseptic prosthesis loosening following TKA. The incidence of these complications increased as BMI increased (X2: 20,079, p: 0.01). Postoperative knee flexion degrees, KOOS and Lysholm scores were significantly different between the groups (p: 0.000). As BMI increased, clinical and functional outcomes deteriorated.
conclusionObesity is one of the most important risk factors for prosthesis infection and aseptic prosthesis loosening which can be seen after TKA. High BMI values also adversely affect clinical and functional outcomes after TKA.
