THE RESULTS OF A COMPARISON OF A BRAZILIAN AND AN IMPORTED KNEE PROSTHESIS - 5 YEARS OF FOLLOW-UP.
Article in Acta ortopedica brasileira, 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
Introduction: To compare the functional results, satisfaction rates, and revisions of total knee arthroplasties performed by the same surgical team using either Brazilian or imported implants, with a minimum follow-up of 5 years after surgery. Materials and Methods: A retrospective cohort study analyzing the medical records and interviews of patients who underwent total knee arthroplasty with Brazilian or imported implants with a minimum of 5 years after surgery. Results: One hundred and fifty patients were evaluated (164 knees). In the functional questionnaire, 71% of patients had favorable answers in the group of patients who underwent surgery using the Brazilian prosthesis and 74.8% in the group with imported implants (p=0.634). There was no statistical difference in satisfaction between the groups, with 78.4% of patients satisfied or very satisfied in the Brazilian implant group and 90.7% in the imported implant group (p=0.053). Loosening of the implants was reported in 5.3% versus 4.7% (p>0.999). Conclusion: The total knee arthroplasties performed by the same surgical team with a minimum follow-up period of 5 years showed similar levels of satisfaction, function, and complications with both the Brazilian and imported implants.
