Ethnical Differences in Knee Phenotypes Indicate the Need for a More Individualized Approach in Knee Arthroplasty: A Comparison of 80 Asian Knees with 308 Caucasian Knees.
Article in Journal of personalized medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 17 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to determine the distribution of functional knee phenotypes in a non-osteoarthritic Asian population. The Stryker Orthopaedic Modeling and Analytics (SOMA) database was searched for CT scans of the lower limb meeting the following inclusion criteria: patient age at time of image >18 and <46 years, no signs of fractures and/or previous surgery and/or degenerative changes, Asian ethnicity. A total of 80 CT scans of 40 patients were included (24 males, 16 females). The hip-knee-ankle angle (HKA), femoral mechanical angle (FMA) and tibial mechanical angle (TMA) were measured. Based on these measurements, each limb was phenotyped according to the previously introduced functional knee phenotype concept. All angles and phenotypes of the present study were compared with previously published data of a non-osteoarthritic Caucasian population (308 legs of 160 patients, 102 males, 58 females). Asian knees had a significantly lower TMA (both genders
