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

backgroundAfter transfemoral amputation a prosthesis is required to restore autonomous standing and bipedal locomotion. Attachment of the prosthesis can be achieved either classically via socket suspension with a shaft in the stump or directly via implantation of an intramedullary transcutaneous femoral prosthesis (osseointegrated prosthesis).

aimA fully instrumented gait analysis should enable objectification of the anticipated advantages of the EEP with respect to the gait pattern and individual mobility. MATERIAL AND

methodsIn two patients with a unilateral transfemoral amputation a comprehensive gait analysis was carried out prior to and 6 months (patient 1) or 11 and 20 months (patient 2) after switching from a socket prosthesis to an EEP. This was carried out in the Gait Realtime Analysis Interactive Lab (GRAIL), a fully instrumented gait laboratory with virtual reality and enables assessment close to the conditions of daily life.

resultsIn both cases the gait analysis confirmed the advantages associated with an EEP for the transmission of force to the prosthesis and the accompanying improvement in gait symmetry.
