The Design of the Patellar Component Does Not Affect the Patient-Reported Outcome Measures in Primary Posterior-Stabilized Total Knee Arthroplasty: A Randomized Prospective Study.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
This randomized comparative study was conducted to investigate the outcomes of patellar resurfacing with a medialized dome or an anatomical type in patients receiving primary unilateral posterior-stabilized TKA. Between March 2019 and January 2021, 98 knees were randomly assigned to receive patellar resurfacing by a medialized dome type (group D, 49 knees) or an anatomic type (group A, 49 knees). The primary outcome was the Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score. The secondary outcomes were the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index, Feller's patella score, the Kujala anterior knee pain score, knee joint range of motion (ROM), and postoperative complications, including periprosthetic patellar fracture, patellar tilt angle, and lateral patellar shift. Patient-reported outcomes were not significantly different between the two groups. The ROM of the knee joint was significantly better in group A at six months after surgery (
