Preoperative activity levels are an important indicator of postoperative activity in cementless TKAs.
Article in Journal of orthopaedics. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
introductionIt is of interest if preoperative activity level has an impact on postoperative activity level following cementless TKA.
methodsThis review contained 127 patients who had a preoperative Lower Extremity Activity Scale (LEAS) score ≥ to 10 (active patients) and 121 patients <10 (inactive patients).
resultsPostoperatively, the results showed a difference in LEAS Activity (Active 10.5 vs. Inactive 8.7, p < 0.001). Active patients had a drop in their activity level by 1.2 on the LEAS score, yet inactive patients increased by 1.6 (p < 0.0001).
conclusionPreoperative activity levels are a good indicator for postoperative activity in cementless TKA.
