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

Introduction: Rehabilitation after Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA) often includes proprioceptive exercises to prevent falls, but studies on proprioceptive training have yielded conflicting findings. This study aims to explore impact of proprioceptive training on functional performance after TKA. Methods: Eighty patients who underwent unilateral TKA were randomly assigned to a proprioceptive exercise (PE) group or a routine exercises (RE) group. The PE group received proprioceptive exercises in addition to routine physiotherapy. Osteoarthritis Research Society Internal (OARSI) recommended tests and Oxford Knee Score (OKS) were used to assess performance and outcome at 3 and 6 months. Results: In the 30-s chair sits test, the PE group outperformed the RE group at 3 months (13.69 vs. 9.17) and 6 months (21.07 vs. 18.63) ( Conclusion: This study highlights the importance of proprioception-based rehabilitation in improving functional performance for TKA patients, surpassing traditional rehabilitation programmes.
