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

Background: Cementless total knee arthroplasties (TKAs) have gained renewed interest due to improved implant designs and lower rates of revision than its cemented counterparts. The purpose of this study was to compare revision rates between cemented vs cementless TKAs within 1 year of primary arthroplasty. Methods: This was a retrospective review from the PearlDiver Patient Record Database. International Classification of Diseases and Current Procedural Terminology codes were used to identify patients who had undergone cemented and cementless TKAs and subsequent surgical revisions. An unadjusted univariate analysis of patient demographics, Charlson Comorbidity Index score, and surgical revisions at 90 days and 1 year after TKA was performed using chi-squared testing. Multivariate logistic regression analyses were subsequently performed for 1-year surgical complications requiring revision. Results: Of 324,508 patients, 312,988 (96.45%) underwent cemented TKAs, and 11,520 (3.55%) underwent cementless TKAs. Patients undergoing cementless TKA tended to be younger than patients undergoing cemented TKA (63.67 ± 9.15 cementless vs 66.22 ± 8.85 cemented, Conclusions: Small but significant differences were found in surgical revisions among cementless TKAs when compared to cemented TKAs within 1 year of the index procedure.
