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
The size and axial alignment of prostheses, when planned during total knee replacement (TKA) are critical for recovery of knee function and improvement of knee pain symptoms. This research aims to study the effect of artificial intelligence (AI)-based preoperative three dimensional (3D) planning technology on prosthesis size and axial alignment planning in TKA, and to compare its advantages with two dimensional (2D) X-ray template measurement technology. A total of 60 patients with knee osteoarthritis (KOA) who underwent TKA for the first time were included in the AI (n = 30) and 2D (n = 30) groups. The preoperative and postoperative prosthesis size, femoral valgus correction angle (VCA) and hip-knee-ankle angle (HKA) were recorded and compared between the two groups. The results of the University of Western Ontario and McMaster University Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) and the American Knee Association Score (AKS) were evaluated before surgery, 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months after surgery. The accuracy of prosthesis size, VCA and HKA prediction in AI group was significantly higher than that in 2D group (P < 0.05). The WOMAC and AKS scores in AI group at 3 months, 6 months and 12 months after surgery were better than those in 2D group (P < 0.05). Both groups showed significant improvement in WOMAC and AKS scores at 12 months follow-up. AI-based preoperative 3D planning technique has more reliable planning effect for prosthesis size and axial alignment in TKA.
