Revision knee arthroplasty using a modular system manufactured in Brazil. Clinical and radiographic results with a mean nine-year follow-up.

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
objectiveTo demonstrate the clinical and radiographic results of revision knee arthroplasty using a modular system manufactured in Brazil.
methodsBetween November 2010 and January 2017, 31 revision knee arthroplasties were performed in 30 patients, using the MB-V system. Patients were assessed clinically and radiographically after a minimum follow-up of two years using the following scores: Knee Society Score (KSS), Knee Society Score ‒ Function (KSS ‒ Function), and Knee Society Roentgenographic Evaluation System (KSRES).
resultsAmong the patients, 19 were women. The mean age at surgery was 68 years. The mean follow-up was 9.1 years. There was no aseptic loosening in this period. The mean values of KSS, KSS-function, and KSRES were, respectively, 82, 77, and less than 4. One patient evolved with postoperative flexion instability. Two knees became infected, requiring the removal of the prosthesis and implantation of spacers loaded with antibiotics. One patient developed arthrofibrosis. One patient had a dislocation with full medial collateral avulsion and had to be re-operated with an insert exchange to a CCK liner and medial collateral reconstruction as proposed by Krakow.
conclusionThis implant had 93.5 % survivorship (no cases of aseptic failure) and good results in 27 out of 31 knees (87 % of the surgeries).
