Development and validation of a nomogram for predicting a forgotten joint in patients one year after robotic-assisted total knee arthroplasty.

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
purposeThe Forgotten Joint Score (FJS-12) was designed to assess the extent to which patients were unaware of their artificial joints during daily activities, representing an ideal outcome of TKA. This study aimed to identify the individual predictors and develop a nomogram to predict a forgotten joint in patients 1 year after robotic-assisted total knee arthroplasty (RA-TKA).
methodsThis retrospective study involved 199 patients with knee osteoarthritis who underwent RA-TKA. All participants completed the FJS-12 questionnaire at 1-year follow-up, with scores above 77.1 considered indicative of a forgotten joint. The demographic data, surgical data, preoperative and postoperative imaging data were collected for analysis. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were conducted to determine predictors and establish a predictive model. The receiver operating characteristic curve, calibration curve analysis and decision curve analysis (DCA) were used to evaluate the discriminatory ability, calibration and clinical usefulness of the model.
resultsOverall, 44.22% (88/199) of knees achieved a forgotten joint 1 year after RA-TKA. Five variables were identified as independent predictors, including age, sex, prothesis type, operative time and changes in the arithmetic hip-knee-ankle angle (aHKA). The area under the curve (AUC) of the nomogram was 0.726 and 0.725 (95% CI 0.660-0.788) using 500 bootstrap resampling. The Hosmer-Lemeshow test showed that the model was of goodness-of-fit (p = 0.886). And the DCA showed net benefits when the threshold probability was between 20 and 75%.
conclusionsA nomogram was developed and internally validated for predicting a forgotten joint 1 year after RA-TKA. Its implementation may enhance patient selection, refine preoperative counseling, and optimize surgical decision-making, potentially improving functional outcomes. Further external validation in broader populations is required to confirm its generalizability. CLINICAL TRIAL NUMBER: Not applicable.
