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

purposeStudying long-term survivorship and functional outcomes for specific prostheses is critical for elucidating areas in need of design improvement. This study reports the long-term of the NexGen Posterior Stabilized (PS) Total Knee implant (TKA) (Zimmer Biomet, Warsaw IN) Performed by a single surgeon.

methodsData from patients treated with the NexGen PS TKA between January 2003 and December 2005 with a minimal follow-up of 15 years was collected from a prospectively collected database. Survivorship rates and Oxford Knee Scores (OKS) were obtained for those patients available for follow-up.

resultsNinety-five patients met the inclusion criteria during the study period. OKS was available for 44 (46%) patients. Ten patients required revision surgery (10.52%). Implant-specific survivorship of all cases that were reviewed was 98%. Survivorship of implants in patients that we were able to reach, or deceased patients was 93%. The average Oxford Knee Score was 39.1 (14-48. SD ± 7.70) with 48 being the maximal score.

conclusionDespite some concerns about durability of this implant, good longevity and function was demonstrated. At a minimum of 15 years follow-up in this cohort. Given these results design features of this system should be considered for future generations of implants.
