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.

Abstract

Background: Many total knee arthroplasty (TKA) patients exhibit continued pain and limited function following surgery. Determining TKA outcomes is typically reliant on post-operative evaluations and completing patient-reported outcomes (PROMs). Due to low compliance rates, it is essential to identify new strategies for monitoring patients. The purpose of this analysis was to assess the correlations between gait kinematics, PROMs, and knee range of motion (ROM). Methods: 130 patients (75 female) received Persona IQ TKA (Zimmer Biomet, Warsaw, IN, USA) which includes a stem extension with embedded accelerometer and gyroscope. PROM scores were compared at baseline and 6 weeks post-TKA using a paired Results: Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS Jr.) and Veterans RAND 12 (VR-12) physical scores improved following surgery (p ≤ 0.001, p = 0.003, respectively). Weak statistically significant correlations were found between PROMS and gait kinematics. Conclusion: Weak correlations between PROMs and gait kinematics indicate patient perception of improvement and objectively measured functional status may not be interchangeable. Further, compliance with Persona IQ data reached 95.4-97.7% (depending on the parameter) at 6 weeks following surgery, a 20% higher compliance rate over PROMs. Daily functional measurements provide insight into the patient's progression and may be useful in detecting poor outcomes.
