1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

This study aims to investigate the impact of tibial tray fixation peg structure in posterior stabilized (PS) knee prostheses on its initial fixation stability, a finite element model and a micromotion prediction model of PS total knee arthroplasty (TKA) were established to comparatively study the differences in the von Mises stress of the proximal tibia and the micromotion at the bone-prosthesis fixation interface under four PS tibial tray fixation peg design, namely cylindrical plus hemispherical, cylindrical plus conical, hexagonal prism, and cruciform. The results showed that, at the moment of the maximum force of knee joint during level walking activity, there was no significant difference in the tibial von Mises stress between the tibial tray with or without fixation peg designs. However, the peak micromotions at the prosthesis fixation interface of all tibial trays with fixation peg design were significantly reduced. Among them, the micromotion suppression effect of the cruciform fixation peg was the most obvious. At the moment of the maximum flexion angle of knee joint during squatting activity, the tibial von Mises stress for tibial trays with fixation peg design was clearly lower than that without fixation peg design, meanwhile the peak micromotion at the prosthesis fixation interface was also significantly reduced. Overall, the cruciform fixation peg design showed the best fixation stability and effectively reduced the loosening risk at the prosthesis fixation interface. This study recommended that the backside of the tibial tray in non-cemented PS knee prostheses adopted a design combining a cylindrical stem with a serrated keel and a cruciform fixation peg. This study provided an important reference basis for improving the initial fixation stability of non-cemented PS knee prostheses by optimizing the backside design of the tibial tray.
