The impact of Behcet syndrome on total knee arthroplasty outcomes: a retrospective matched cohort study.
Article in International orthopaedics, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
purposeArticu lar involvement is a common manifestation of Behcet syndrome (BS), which can eventually result in significant arthralgia and necessitate total knee arthroplasty (TKA). However, outcomes of BS patients after TKA are still poorly documented in the literature. The purpose of this study was to evaluate BS as a potential risk factor for complications after TKA.
methodsBS patients undergoing primary TKA were identified from the PearlDiver Mariner database from 2010 to 2021 and compared to 10:1 matched controls. Multivariable logistic regression analyses were done for medical complications up to 90 days and surgical complications up to two years. Ninety-day emergency department (ED) visit and inpatient readmission were also documented.
resultsA total of 4286 patients undergoing primary TKA were queried, of which 390 had BS. Patients with BS demonstrated significantly higher rates of medical complications, including deep venous thrombosis. The rates of surgical complications were similar between the two groups with the exception of periprosthetic instability, aseptic loosening, and wound complications in BS patients. Additionally, a significantly higher rate of ED visits but markedly lower rates of 90-day readmissions were noted in patients with BS.
conclusionPatients with BS undergoing TKA are at higher risks of medical and surgical complications. Special considerations for a unique postoperative course with the higher complications should be made. It is crucial for orthopedic surgeons and patients alike to consider these risks when determining the expected course after TKA for patients with BS.
