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

background/purposeForgotten Joint Score (FJS) is designed to asses patient recovery post Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA) in a new dimension. It assess the ability to forget the operated joint as artificial during activities of daily living. New Knee Society Score (NKSS) is developed to encompass objective and subjective outcome as well as an assessment of patient expectation and satisfaction. Our purpose was (1) to determine FJS at 1 year post TKA in Indian Patients, and (2) to assess convergent validity between FJS and the NKSS. We hypothesised that FJS should strongly correlate with the Satisfaction (SS) and Knee perception(KPS) sub-component of NKSS.

methodsWe enrolled 181 patients who underwent primary TKA during an 8-month duration. They were prospectively followed up at 1-year review clinic when FJS and NKSS were administered. 169 patients completed the assessment forms and 13 patients were lost to follow-up. Statistical evaluation was done with Spearman correlation test.

resultsMean FJS at 1 year was 66.6 ± 25.9 with 14% ceiling and 1% floor effects. There was a mild to moderate correlation of FJS with NKSS (

conclusionMean FJS at 1 year post TKA showed convergent validity with NKSS; however, the correlation was not strong enough to use them interchangeably. Hypothesis that FJS should strongly correlate with the NKSS sub-components of satisfaction and joint perception was refuted. We conclude, FJS provides unique evaluation in recovery post TKA, different from NKSS. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level III.
