Patient-specific lunate prosthesis with perilunate ligament reconstruction: surgical technique.
Article in Archives of orthopaedic and trauma surgery, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
The lunate bone plays a central role in force transmission, proximal carpal row integrity, and kinematics of the wrist. In cases of irreparable pathologies to the lunate bone, prosthetic replacement is appealing to avoid salvage procedures. Previous attempts at lunate replacement yielded inconsistent results due to non-anatomical implant design and lack of ligament reconstruction, which posed a risk of dislocation and carpal collapse. Nowadays, the CAD design process and 3D printing of bio-compatible materials such as titanium make it possible to manufacture patient-specific lunate implants. We present a technique and first clinical results of a patient-specific lunate replacement that includes reconstruction of the most important perilunate ligaments to suspend the implant and restore carpal integrity.
