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

Changes in mechanical loading following total knee arthroplasty (TKA) are a critical factor that is important to understand with respect to component fixation. The aims of this study were to estimate medial, lateral, and total knee joint contact forces preoperatively, and then at 3-, 6-, and 12-months postoperatively. Joint reaction forces (JRFs) were estimated using an electromyography (EMG) informed musculoskeletal modeling workflow with models scaled using computed tomography (CT) scans and weightbearing X-rays, for lower limb alignment. Joint loading peak values and impulses were estimated in 22 participants awaiting primary TKA for osteoarthritis (OA) (median age, range: 69, 49-80 years; median BMI, range: 33, 25-40 kg/m
