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

backgroundPostoperative rehabilitation after knee arthroplasty plays a decisive role in restoring the function and mobility of the affected joint. However, there is still disagreement regarding the setting, structure and content of rehabilitation after knee arthroplasty, and the evidence on the individual measures is largely unclear. The aim of this article is to provide an evidence-based overview of the current status of rehabilitation after knee arthroplasty and to critically discuss the points that are still unclear. In view of the increasing prevalence of knee osteoarthritis and the rising number of knee endoprosthesis implantations, the optimization and scientific processing of postoperative rehabilitation is more important than ever in order to be able to offer scientifically sound, practice-oriented and cost-effective rehabilitation measures in the future. MATERIAL AND

methodsThis review is based on a systematic literature search in Medline, Cochrane Library and Web of Science databases on the topic of postoperative rehabilitation after knee arthroplasty.

resultsRegarding specific treatment components, duration and frequency after knee arthroplasty, the evidence is unclear. Passive therapies should only be used supportive to active interventions. Educational programmes before and after knee arthroplasty can play a crucial role in outcome and patient satisfaction. Regular strength training should always be combined with centrally oriented components, such as motor imagery, to achieve better movement visualization and central anchoring. There is still a frequent lack of scientific evidence regarding individual therapeutic measures, their intensity, frequency, duration, exercise selection and their specific implementation in rehabilitation after knee arthroplasty. In the future, digital diagnostic and training tools will become established in both inpatient and outpatient therapy, supporting the urgently needed data collection for the scientific analysis of individual therapeutic measures.
