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

backgroundConsidering the increasing importance of the new method of arthroplasty in the treatment of knee osteoarthritis and the possibility of its two-stage and one-stage process, as well as considering that each method has its own merits, this study examines these disadvantages and comparisons.

methodsIn this cross-sectional study, 119 patients undergoing bilateral knee arthroplasty surgery were enrolled in the study, in the first group with the simultaneous process (60) and the second group who were willing two stages (from a period of three months or more) 59 patients, Then the treatment outcomes were compared in both groups.

resultsThe mean duration of hospitalization in the simultaneous group was significantly lower than that in the staged group (P < 0.05). The average surgery cost in the staged method was significantly higher than that of the same group (P < 0.05). The mean knee motion range and patients' satisfaction in the two groups did not significantly differ. In the short term, patients' satisfaction was higher in the stage method.

conclusionThe simultaneous approach to hospitalization time and costs was better than the staged method, but in the long-term, there was a significant difference in other aspects.
