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
Purpose: The aim of this study was to compare post-operative short-term patient-reported outcome measurements (PROMs) between robotic-assisted (RA) and the conventional jig-based technique using bi-cruciate retaining total knee arthroplasty (BCR TKA). Methods: This retrospective single-surgeon consecutive cohort analysis compares 33 RA-BCR TKA patients (Robot group) to 32 conventional TKA patients (Conventional group). Lateral distal femoral angle (LDFA), medial proximal tibial angle (MPTA), femoral and tibial component rotational alignment, distal and posterior femoral osteotomy (mm) were compared between the two groups using three-dimensional computed tomography (3DCT) measurements. 2011 Knee Society Score (KSS), Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index (WOMAC), Forgotten Joint Score and Patella score were collected more than 1 year after surgery. Results: Pre-operative knee scores were significantly higher in the Robot group (mean: 20.5) than in the Conventional group (mean: 16.8), while functional scores were significantly lower in the Robot group (mean: 57.7) than in the Conventional group (mean: 69.6). The Robot group showed significantly greater improvements in post-operative extension angle ( Conclusions: RA-BCR TKA improved post-operative extension angle and standard and advanced activity in the 2011 KSS more than the Conventional TKA. Level of Evidence: Level III.
