Outcomes of Lower Extremity Total Joint Arthroplasty in Patients With Skeletal Dysplasia: A Systematic Review.
Article in Arthroplasty today, 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
Background: Patients with genetic skeletal dysplasias often require lower extremity total joint arthroplasty (TJA) due to early joint degeneration; however, little data exists regarding the outcomes of TJA in this population. Our purpose was to review the literature to determine the complication rates, revision rates, implant survivorship, and patient-reported outcomes of total knee arthroplasty and total hip arthroplasty (THA) in those with genetic skeletal dysplasias. Methods: A systematic literature review of online databases (PubMed and Google Scholar) was conducted. Studies that reported the outcomes of THA or total knee arthroplasty in patients with genetically confirmed skeletal dysplasias were included. Case reports and studies that defined dysplasia based on height alone were excluded. Fourteen studies met the criteria for data extraction and analysis. Results: Our review yielded a sample of 596 skeletal dysplasia patients with a median follow-up of 6.01 years (1.7-15.9). Mean age was 54.04 years, and mean body mass index was 29.1 kg/m Conclusions: The literature regarding lower extremity TJA in those with genetic skeletal dysplasias demonstrates appropriate 10-year implant survivorship and improvement in patient-reported outcomes across all survey domains.
