CLINICAL AND FUNCTIONAL ANALYSIS AFTER TOTAL KNEE ARTHROPLASTY.
Article in Acta ortopedica brasileira, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Osteoarthritis is a major cause of disability worldwide.
objectiveTo evaluate the effects of Total Knee Arthroplasty of subjects with knee osteoarthritis by the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC ).
methodsProspective, non-randomized study with convenience sampling. We included subjects with knee osteoarthritis with indication for surgical treatment. We used WOMAC to evaluate the level of pain, joint stiffness, physical activity, and quality of life in the preoperative and postoperative phase six months after unilateral surgery. We compared WOMAC to the factors age, gender, Body Mass Index and the type of angular deformity of the knee.
resultsIn total, we analyzed 58 patients with significant improvements in pain relief, joint stiffness, level of physical activity, and quality of life six months after total knee arthroplasty according to WOMAC.
conclusionTotal knee arthroplasty showed positive effects on the quality of life of patients with knee osteoarthritis.
