[Mega-prostheses in revision knee arthroplasty].
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 1 paper.
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
backgroundDue to a predicted increase in primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA), revision TKA will gain importance over the following years. Because the average age of patients receiving a TKA is decreasing the possible need for multiple revisions might increase as well. Despite efforts to minimize bone and soft tissue damage, the resulting bone and soft-tissue loss increases with each revision and will make the use of megaprostheses indispensable in the future. COMPLICATIONS: The implantation of a mega-prosthesis must be carefully considered and planned, since mega-prostheses in particular are associated with an increased risk of infection and loosening. Mechanical complications, patient-specific problems and periprosthetic infections can be either the cause for or the result of revision surgery of a mega-prosthesis. In the case of a complication, only a salvage procedure, namely an arthrodesis, amputation or-if necessary-the installation of a permanent fistula is commonly recommended.
