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.

Abstract

objectiveTo identify metabolic factors and inflammatory markers that are predictive of postoperative total knee arthroplasty (TKA) outcome.

methodA systematic search of the existing literature was performed using the electronic databases PubMed, Web of Science and Embase until the 1

resultsIn total, 49 studies were included. Risk of bias of the included studies was low for one study, moderate for 10 studies and high for the remaining 38 studies. Conflicting evidence was found for the influence of body mass index, diabetes, cytokine levels and dyslipidaemia on pain, function, satisfaction and quality of life at more than six months after TKA.

conclusionsSeveral limitations such as not taking into account known confounding factors, the use of many different outcome measures and a widely varying follow-up period made it challenging to draw firm conclusions and clinical implications. Therefore large-scaled longitudinal studies assessing the predictive value of metabolic and inflammatory factors pre-surgery in addition to the already evidenced risk factors with follow-up of one year after TKA are warranted.
