Modified treatment of knee osteoarthritis complicated with femoral varus deformity: A case report.
Article in World journal of clinical cases, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundSurgical treatment of knee osteoarthritis (KOA) complicated by extra-articular deformity has always been controversial regardless of whether it is simultaneous or staged. Simultaneous total knee arthroplasty (TKA) combined with supracondylar osteotomy without plate for treatment of KOA complicated by femoral varus deformity has not been reported in the literature. CASE SUMMARY: A 53-year-old Chinese woman complained of left knee pain for 6 years that worsened for 4 mo during her visit on April 3, 2020, accompanied by instability in walking, which seriously affected quality of life. According to her medical history and preoperative imaging, the patient was diagnosed with left KOA with varus deformity. We used the angular center of rotation principle for osteotomy of the femur deformity and placed a poststabilized femur prosthesis into the knee joint. At the same time, a 13 mm × 130 mm femur extension rod was used instead of a steel plate to fix the end of the femur osteotomy, reducing the possible complications caused by steel plate implantation and reducing the economic burden on patients. The operation successfully solved two major problems of KOA and varus deformity, and the clinical and imaging evaluation of postoperative follow-up were satisfactory.
conclusionTKA and supracondylar femoral osteotomy can be used for simultaneous KOA treatment and deformity correction.
