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

Background: Previous anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury is a risk factor for the development of knee osteoarthritis. Despite advances in ACL reconstruction (ACLR) techniques, many patients with history of ACLR develop end-stage osteoarthritis necessitating total knee arthroplasty (TKA). The purpose of this study was to investigate the impact of prior ACLR on intraoperative and postoperative outcomes of TKA. Methods: This was a single-centre matched cohort study of all patients with prior ACLR undergoing primary TKA from January 2000 to May 2022. Patients were matched 1:1 to patients undergoing TKA with no prior ACL injury based on age, sex, and body mass index. Outcomes investigated included TKA procedure duration, soft-tissue releases, implant design, and complications requiring reoperation. Results: Forty-two ACLR patients were identified and matched to controls. Mean follow-up was 6.8 years and 5.0 years in the ACLR and control cohorts, respectively ( Conclusions: TKA is an effective procedure for the management of end-stage osteoarthritis with prior ACLR. The care team should be prepared for longer operative times and the utilization of advanced techniques to achieve satisfactory soft-tissue balance and implant stability.
