Projected Prevalence of Obesity in Aseptic Revision Total Hip and Knee Arthroplasty.
Article in The Iowa orthopaedic journal, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Background: The purpose of this study was to develop projections of the prevalence of obesity in aseptic revision THA and TKA patients through the year 2029. Methods: The National Surgical Quality Improvement Project (NSQIP) was queried for years 2011-2019. Current procedural terminology (CPT) codes 27134, 27137, and 27138 were used to identify revision THA and CPT codes 27486 and 27487 were used to identify revision TKA. Revision THA/TKA for infectious, traumatic, or oncologic indications were excluded. Participant data were grouped according to body mass index (BMI) categories: underweight/normal weight, <25 kg/m2; overweight, 25-29.9 kg/m2; class I obesity, 30.034.9 kg/m2; class II obesity, 35.0-39.9 kg/m2; morbid obesity ≥ 40 kg/m2. Prevalence of each BMI category was estimated from year 2020 to year 2029 through multinomial regression analyses. Results: 38,325 cases were included (16,153 revision THA and 22,172 revision TKA). From 2011 to 2029, prevalence of class I obesity (24% to 25%), class II obesity (11% to 15%), and morbid obesity (7% to 9%) increased amongst aseptic revision THA patients. Similarly, prevalence of class I obesity (28% to 30%), class II obesity (17% to 29%), and morbid obesity (16% to 18%) increased in aseptic revision TKA patients. Conclusion: Prevalence of class II obesity and morbid obesity demonstrated the largest increases in revision TKA and THA patients. By 2029, we estimate that approximately 49% of aseptic revision THA and 77% of aseptic revision TKA will have obesity and/or morbid obesity. Resources aimed at mitigating complications in this patient population are needed.
