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

backgroundThis study aimed to compare the mid-term clinical and radiographic outcomes between medial-pivotal (MP) insert and double-high (DH) insert used under the cruciate-retaining condition in ADVANCE® total knee arthroplasty (TKA).

methodsThe follow-up was conducted for 158 consecutive patients who underwent unilateral ADVANCE® TKA from January 2011 to April 2014. Eighty-four MP inserts and 74 DH inserts were used under cruciate-retaining conditions. A 1:1 propensity score matching (PSM) analysis was performed between MP inserts and DH inserts to compare the clinical and radiographic outcomes.

resultsAfter a 1:1 PSM, 120 patients (60 pairs) were matched between the MP and DH inserts groups. The baseline demographic parameters and clinical scores were comparable between the two groups. The postoperative clinical outcomes at an averaged 8-year follow-up of both groups were significantly improved. The range of motion (ROM) of the DH group was better than that of the MP group, and equivalent Knee Society Function Score (KSFS) between the two groups was found. However, the Knee Society Score (KSS), Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index (WOMAC) score, and Forgotten Joint Score (FJS) of the MP group were found to be significantly superior to those of the DH group. Comparable complication and revision rates were observed between the two groups. The radiographic results were also equally good between MP and DH groups.

conclusionsAlthough the mid-term clinical and radiographic outcomes of the DH inserts are fairly good, the clinical scores of the DH group were worse than those of the MP group.
