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

Acute postoperative posterior total knee arthroplasty (TKA) dislocation is rare in primary surgery but has been associated with Parkinson's disease (PD). We present a 77-year-old woman with knee arthritis and PD who sustained an acute, recurrent TKA posterior dislocation, recalcitrant to polyethylene upsizing. Transient stability was obtained for a period of 1 year after postoperative hamstring injection with botulinum toxin A and short-term immobilization. Spontaneous instability recurred after 1 year, and stability was obtained with revision to a more constrained construct and has been monitored over a period of 2 years. This is the first report demonstrating the use of botulinum toxin A for acute posterior TKA instability associated with PD. We endorse the necessity of increased constraint to maintain long-term stability in patients with Parkinson's disease.
