Ten-year functional outcomes and up to 18-year survivorship of computer-navigated total knee arthroplasty: analysis of 1677 cases from a high-volume centre.
Article in European journal of orthopaedic surgery & traumatology : orthopedie traumatologie, 2026. 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
purposeThis study aimed to contribute to the evidence base for computer-navigated TKA by providing long-term survivorship and functional outcomes in a large single-centre series, addressing the limited follow-up duration and sample sizes in existing literature.
methodsThis retrospective study analysed 1677 consecutive computer-navigated Columbus TKA procedures performed between 2005 and 2011. Patient-reported outcomes were assessed through 10 years, with survivorship assessed at average 14 years (maximum 18 years). Kaplan-Meier analysis and Cox regression identified revision risk factors.
resultsMean patient age was 68.8 years with 57.2% female patients. Patient-adjusted survivorship was 98.7% (14 years) and 97.0% (18 years). Sixty-one revisions occurred (3.6%), predominantly due to infection. Significant revision predictors included younger age, greater preoperative varus deformity, and poorer one-year Oxford Knee Score.
conclusionComputer-navigated TKA demonstrates excellent long-term functional outcome and implant survivorship. Early functional outcomes showed predictive value for long-term survival, which could inform risk stratification approaches.
