Correlation between tibial and femoral bone and cartilage changes in end-stage knee osteoarthritis.
Article in JBMR plus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Knee osteoarthritis is a whole joint disease highlighting the coupling of cartilage and bone adaptations. However, the structural properties of the subchondral bone plate (SBP) and underlying subchondral trabecular bone (STB) in the femoral compartment have received less attention compared to the tibial side. Furthermore, how the properties in the femoral compartment relate to those in the corresponding tibial site is unknown. Therefore, this study aimed to quantify the structural bone and cartilage morphology in the femoral compartment and investigate its association with those of the tibial plateau. Specifically, tibial plateaus and femoral condyles were retrieved from 28 patients with end-stage knee-osteoarthritis (OA) and varus deformity. The medial condyle of tibial plateaus and the distal part of the medial femoral condyles were micro-CT scanned (20.1 μm/voxel). Cartilage thickness (Cart.Th), SBP, and STB microarchitecture were quantified. Significant (
