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

Prosthetic reconstructive procedures have become the mainstay in contemporary surgical treatment following resection of extremity bone neoplasms. Given that these patients are of young age most of the time, achievement of robust functional outcomes is of paramount importance. The aim of this study is to assess the impact of this procedure on the gait parameters of cancer patients compared to healthy individuals. The Medline, Scopus and Cochrane databases were systematically searched until January 2022 for eligible studies. Gait parameters measured by gait analysis after prosthetic reconstruction were the outcomes of interest. Eight cohort studies were included in our analysis. From these, seven studied prosthetic reconstruction of the knee (distal femur or proximal tibia) and only one exclusively studied prostetic reconstructions of the proximal femur. Compared to healthy individuals a significant decrease was evident in gait velocity (-0.16 m/
