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
introductionIt is preferable to reduce postoperative excessive rotational mismatch between the femur and tibia that causes poor clinical results following total knee arthroplasty (TKA). The aim of this study is to compare postoperative rotational mismatches and clinical outcomes with mobile- and fixed-bearing prostheses. MATERIALS AND
methodsThis study classified 190 TKAs into two groups equally by propensity score matching: mobile-bearing group (n = 95) and fixed-bearing group (n = 95). Computed tomography images of the whole leg were taken at 2 weeks postoperatively. The component alignments, rotational mismatches between the femur and tibia, and rotations among components were measured three-dimensionally. The knee range of motion, New Knee Society Score (KSS) subjective sores, and Forgotten Joint Score (FJS-12) were assessed at the final follow-up.
resultsRotational mismatch between the femur and tibia was significantly less in the mobile- (- 0.8° ± 7.3°) than in the fixed-bearing (3.3° ± 8.5°, p < 0.001) group. New KSS functional activity score was significantly poorer in patients with excessive rotational mismatch (61.3 ± 21.4) than in those without it (49.5 ± 20.6, p = 0.02). Comparing mobile-bearing prosthesis, the use of fixed-bearing prosthesis was a risk factor for postoperative excessive rotational mismatch (odds ratio: 2.32, p = 0.03).
conclusionWhen compared to a fixed-bearing prosthesis, TKA using a mobile-bearing prosthesis could suppress the postoperative rotational mismatch between the femur and tibia that causes poor subjective functional activity score. However, since this study was conducted for PS-TKA, the results might not be applicable to other models.
