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

(1) Background: Unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) provides a viable alternative to total knee arthroplasty (TKA) in patients with isolated medial osteoarthritis (OA). From 2007 to 2021, 23% of all primary knee arthroplasties in Italy were UKAs. We retrospectively evaluated clinical outcomes and satisfaction in patients implanted with a new oxinium metal-backed fixed-bearing medial unicompartmental prosthesis at a 24-month follow-up. (2) Methods: From December 2020 to December 2021, 145 patients were treated by a single surgeon at a single institution using the hypoallergenic Journey II prosthesis. Clinical outcome measures included the Knee Society Knee Score (KSKS), Knee Society Function Score (KSFS), Oxford Knee Society (OKS) score, University of California Los Angeles Activity Score (UCLA), the Physical Component Summary (PCS), and the Mental Component Summary (MCS), and were calculated preoperatively and at 12 and 24 months. The Forgotten Joint Score-12 (FJS-12) was calculated at 12 and 24 months. Patient satisfaction was collected at 24 months. The scores were compared using the Friedman test. (3) Results: All clinical scores improved significantly from baseline to 24 months (
