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

purposeTo investigate the effect of the femoral component and tibial plateau component temperature on the strength of cement fixation during total knee arthroplasty (TKA).

methodsFemoral prosthesis, tibial plateau prosthesis, and polypropylene mold base were used to simulate TKA for bone cement fixation. Pre-cooling or pre-warming of femoral and tibial plateau components at different temperatures (4 °C, 15 °C, 25 °C, 37 °C, 45 °C), followed by mixing and stirring of bone cement at laboratory room temperature (22 °C), were performed during research. The prosthesis and the base adhered together, and the bone cement was solidified for 24 h at a constant temperature of 37 °C to verify the hardness of the bone cement with a push-out test.

resultsThe push-out force of the femoral prosthesis after fixation was higher than that of the tibial plateau prosthesis, and with the increase of the prosthesis temperature, the push-out force after fixation of the bone cement also increased linearly and the porosity of the prosthetic cement in the tibia and femur decreased as the temperature increased.

conclusionWithout changing the mixing temperature and solidification temperature, the fixation strength of the femoral prosthesis is higher than that of the tibial plateau prosthesis. Properly increasing the temperature of the prosthesis can increase the push-out force of the fixation strength.
