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

objectivesIn this study, we present our 10-year postoperative follow-up results of Sanat Swing® and NexGen® total knee implants. PATIENTS AND

methodsA total of 189 patients (93 males, 96 females; mean age: 68 years; range, 48 to 86 years) who underwent total knee replacement between January 2008 and September 2010 were retrospectively analyzed. A total of 105 patients (Group A) were implanted a cemented Sanat Swing knee prosthesis and 84 patients (Group B) were implanted a cemented NexGen knee prosthesis. Operation time, range of motion (ROM), pain level, Knee Society Score (KSS), distance of painless walking, and the ability to climb stairs were evaluated between the groups.

resultsThe mean follow-up was 10.8 (range, 9.8 to 12.3) years. No significant difference was observed in the survival of the prostheses, ROM, pain level, KSS, walking distance, and in the ability to climb stairs between the two groups at 10 years. With an experienced team, the operation time was about 4 to 5 min shorter in the Sanat Swing implantation group. In selected cases, Sanat Swing was superior to the NexGen system; however, there was no statistically significant difference. Complication rates were also low and comparable between both groups.

conclusionBased on the 10 years of follow-up evaluation, Sanat Swing total knee replacement system seems to yield comparable clinical results with the NexGen. Experiences with the operative technique and comparative evaluation, the Sanat Swing system is a safe and reliable alternative for total knee replacement, providing a user-friendly operative technique and shorter operation time.
