Evolutionary patterns and future perspectives of joint replacement in arthritis patients: a comprehensive analysis of findings over the past decades.
Article in EFORT open reviews, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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: This study aimed to comprehensively review the current research status and trends of joint replacement for arthritis patients worldwide. Methods: Literature related to joint replacement for arthritis patients from 2004 to 2024 was extracted from the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC) database. A systematic qualitative and quantitative analysis of these publications was conducted. Visualization of results was achieved using CiteSpace and VOSviewer software. Results: In total, 14,349 publications met the inclusion and exclusion criteria and were selected for further research. Keyword analysis revealed a clinical emphasis on optimizing surgical outcomes through advancements in total knee arthroplasty, total hip arthroplasty, and patient-centered metrics. Emerging research hotspots since 2020 included precision techniques such as robotic-assisted surgery, strategies to address periprosthetic joint infection, and the role of psychological factors such as depression and patient satisfaction. Temporal trends highlighted evolving priorities, including personalized alignment protocols, where the burst intensities of kinematic alignment and mechanical alignment were 16.33 and 13.79, respectively, as well as functional recovery and complication prevention. Historical dominance of rheumatoid arthritis research has transitioned to broader exploration of osteoarthritis management and technological innovations in surgical precision. Conclusion: This study revealed a marked transition from rheumatoid arthritis-focused studies to innovations in osteoarthritis management and precision surgical techniques. Clinically, these findings emphasize the need to integrate technological advancements with multidisciplinary frameworks to standardize infection control, optimize implant durability, and enhance rehabilitation outcomes. Future efforts should prioritize personalized alignment strategies, evidence-based infection control protocols, and multidisciplinary rehabilitation frameworks to improve long-term functional outcomes.
