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

purposeThis study aimed to investigate functional outcome and complications after primary and revision modular H-TKA using hybrid fixation with cementless stems.

methodsBetween 2015 and 2018, 48 patients with 50 implants were included after hybrid implantation of a single design H-TKA system using cementless osseointegrating stems and modular components. Complications and clinical outcome were analysed using Knee Society Score (KSS), the Western Ontario McMasters Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) and the Short-Form Health Survey 12 (SF-12) score.

resultsIndications for implantation were aseptic revision (n = 29, 58%), primary TKA (n = 19, 38%) and two-stage septic revisions (n = 2, 4%). Complications were reported in 26% (n = 12), whereas complications associated with hybrid fixation occurred in 5 (10%) cases, with 2 (4%) requiring revision surgery for aseptic loosening and 3 (6%) treated with an adapted postoperative protocol for perioperative fractures. Implant survivorship was 84% after a mean follow-up of 54 months. Postoperative KSS significantly improved from 51.50 (12-100) to 78.36 (41-99; p < 0.001). The mean WOMAC score was 19.26 (0-55), SF-12 PCS was 41.56 points (22.67-57.66) and SF-12 MCS was 49.21 points (23.87-63.21).

conclusionHybrid modular implantation in H-TKA provides satisfactory clinical and functional results in primary and revision TKA. Clinical outcomes significantly improve with reduced pain, increased mobility, and good-to-excellent functional scores after implantation. Whilst implant survival is comparable to previous studies and complications associated with hybrid fixation are low, general complication rates are comparably high.
