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

Objective: To analyze the accuracy of prosthesis size selection in Naton robot-assisted medial unicondyle knee arthroplasty by comparing the actual prosthesis size used during operation and the preoperative planning. Methods: The clinical data of 100 patients (110 knees) who underwent Naton robot-assisted medial unicondylar knee arthroplasty between June 2023 and July 2024 was retrospectively analyzed, including 47 knees on left side and 63 knees on right side. There were 37 males (40 knees) and 63 females (70 knees) with a mean age of 65.4 years (range, 59-71 years). Body mass index was 22.2-28.6 kg/m Results: During operation, 5 patients (5 knees) were treated with traditional UKA due to mechanical arm failure, software obstacles, significant bone amputation bias, or loose reference frame, and were excluded from the final analysis. The remaining 95 patients (105 knees) successfully received Naton robot-assisted surgery, and no related complications occurred. The prosthesis size was consistent with the preoperative plan in 101 knees (96.2%) on the femur side, 100 knees (95.2%) on the tibia side, and 97 knees (92.4%) on both femur and tibia sides. The prosthesis size was inconsistent in 3 cases (2.86%) on the femur side alone, 4 cases (3.81%) on the tibial side alone, and 1 case (0.95%) on both femur and tibial sides. Among the prostheses with different models, the flexion and extension gaps were less than 0.5 mm in 3 knees, the flexion gap was less than 0.5 mm and the extension gap was more than 2.0 mm in 3 knees, and the flexion gap was more than 2.0 mm and the extension gap was less than 0.5 mm in 2 knees. Conclusion: The accuracy of prosthesis size selection for Naton robot-assisted medial unicondylar knee arthroplasty is relatively high.
