[Extended access to revision knee replacement : Intraoperative possibilities for improved joint exposure in complex knee arthroplasty procedures].
Review in Der Orthopade, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
In most cases, a standard access via a medial parapatellar arthrotomy with a carefully performed release technique is sufficient for a good exposure of the knee joint in the revision situation. Crucial steps are targeted scar removal, sufficient soft tissue release and recreation of the shifting layers. Tuberosity osteotomy is an effective option for extended exposure at the distal joint region, facilitating a patella replacement to correct abnormalities in the patellofemoral joint. Extended exposure to the proximal joint is possible with the rectus snip and the VY plasty technique. Due to the rather poor results, a quadriceps turndown should be seen more historically and should no longer be used. In extreme cases, a femoral peel or an osteotomy of the medial epicondyle can help achieve the reconstruction of a joint. The latter techniques are reserved for selected cases and always require a linked implant.
