A Protocol to Systematic Radiographic Assessment of Primary Total Knee Arthroplasty.
Review in Orthopedic research and reviews, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT05944679 (Prospective Randomized Study of the Clinical Utility to Follow-up Radiographs During the First Year of Knee Replacement Surgery), which is not on this map. Cited by 21 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.

Abstract
Although total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is considered one of the most successful procedures, however, a subset of patients are unsatisfied with the results, even with the introduction of new technologies and implant designs. Radiological assessment of TKA is still considered the most prevalent imaging modality for evaluating the knee joint pre-and postoperatively. Assessment of various angles and indices which could be measured in different radiographic views of the knee provides valuable information about the alignment of the entire limb and the individual prosthetic components, more so in the light of recent nuanced concepts of technique, alignment, and balance. This review article aims to present a comprehensive yet systematic approach to the most useful radiographic parameters for assessing the knee preoperatively and post-TKA by explaining the tools and techniques used for measuring various angles, indices and ratios in the coronal, sagittal and axial planes for diagnosis, preoperative planning, postoperative assessment, and routine follow-up. The protocol we followed in this review entailed first reporting the possible applications and software which could help in measuring these variables, then we mentioned the required series of knee radiographs. For the desired variables, we divided the assessment according to each plane, and in each, we reported the optimum position of the desired radiographic view followed by determining the axis and lines which will later form the desired angles to be measured; finally, we collected all the measurements in a table with the native knee values and the most accepted values after TKA.
