[Patient-specific cutting guides in corrective osteotomy near to the knee joint].
Review in Operative Orthopadie und Traumatologie, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
objectivePatient-specific cutting guides (PSCG) are used in osteotomy near to the knee joint to simplify the operative technique, shorten the duration of surgery, reduce radiation exposure and to exactly realize the preoperative planning during surgery, especially when complex deformities are corrected simultaneously in multiple planes. INDICATIONS: The application of PSCG is in principle possible in all osteotomies near to the knee joint but is especially useful in multidimensional, complex osteotomy. CONTRAINDICATIONS: No specific contraindications. SURGICAL TECHNIQUE: After multidimensional 3D analysis and planning using a preoperative computed tomography (CT) protocol, a 3D-printed patient-specific cutting guide is produced. This PSCG is used during standard osteotomy near to the knee. Using this PSCG the guided sawcut and predrilling of the screw positions inside the bone for the screws of the planned angle stable osteotomy plate are performed. The amount of the deformity correction needed is "stored" in the PSCG and is converted to the bony geometry during placement of the screws in the predrilled holes through the plate after opening or closing the osteotomy. Apart from that, the surgical approach and technique are equivalent to the standard osteotomy types near to the knee. POSTOPERATIVE MANAGEMENT: The application of PSCG in osteotomy near to the knee does not change the postoperative management of the specific osteotomy.
resultsThe use of patient-specific cutting guides leads to a higher accuracy in the implementation of the preoperative planning and the desired target axis is achieved with greater accuracy. Multidimensional complex corrections can also be exactly planned and implemented. In addition, the intraoperative radiation exposure for the operation team can possibly be reduced.
