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

In a previous randomized trial, the non-inferiority of two hyaluronic acid injections (Synolis VA versus Synvisc-One) was assessed in patients with knee OA, with a response rate of 79% for Synolis VA. To assess whether a responder profile could be established for this treatment modality, we used the Synolis VA arm of a published 6-month prospective, multicenter, comparative, randomized, double-blinded trial. At baseline and during the study, pain and function were assessed using the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index (WOMAC) questionnaire. Ninety-six subjects from the intention-to-treat trial were included in the analysis. The 6-month change of WOMAC Pain with Synolis VA was not associated with any baseline clinical data. However, the change in WOMAC Function was significantly associated with its baseline level, even after adjustment for potential confounding variables (
