Enhanced improvement and comparable survivorship in cementless versus cemented total knee arthroplasty: a 2-year analysis of patient reported outcomes and 5-year analysis of implant survivorship.

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
purposeThis study aimed to evaluate patient-reported outcomes, functional recovery, satisfaction, and implant survivorship for cementless and cemented TKA.
methodsA prospective, non-randomized, multicenter study was conducted on 453 patients. Cohort 1 (n = 373 knees) received a fully cementless construct with the Triathlon Tritanium Tibial Baseplate, Triathlon Tritanium Patella, Triathlon CR or PS Beaded Femur with Peri-Apatite, and the Triathlon Tibial Insert. Cohort 2 (n = 147 knees) received a fully cemented construct with identical implant design. Oxford Knee Score (OKS), 2011 Knee Society Score (KSS), and Short Form 12 scores were recorded preoperatively and at 6 weeks, 6 months, 1 year, and 2 years postoperatively. Implant survivorship and adverse events were also recorded.
resultsOKS (mean difference [MD] 1.5, p = 0.0123), KSS Symptoms for pain (with level walking [MD 0.62, p = 0.0007]; with stairs or incline [MD 0.85, p = 0.0037), KSS Patient satisfaction (MD 2.31, p = 0.0004), and KSS Functional Activities (MD 0.53, p = 0.0108) were significantly greater in Cohort 1 out to 2 years postoperatively. The Kaplan-Meier estimated all-cause survivorship was 98.2% (95% CI: 95.7-99.3%) for Cohort 1 and 97.5% (95% CI: 92.6-99.2%) for Cohort 2 (p = 0.4366).
conclusionCementless TKA exhibited similar or greater patient outcomes, satisfaction, and function up to 2 years postoperative, while both cohorts showed comparable rates of adverse events and survivorship at 5-year follow-up. This evidence underscores the clinical value and safety of cementless TKA.
