Increasing research on personalized alignment concepts, robotic-assisted surgery and artificial intelligence in total knee arthroplasty: A bibliometric analysis of the last 10 years in
Review in Journal of experimental orthopaedics, 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
Purpose: To evaluate contemporary trends in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) research published in Methods: Results: Alignment concepts shifted after 2022; KA increased to 40% (16/40 articles) and FA to 30% (12/40 articles) in 2024, whereas MA declined to 30% (12/40 articles). Manual TKA dominated overall (455/699 articles, 65%), whereas navigation (118 articles, 17%) and PSI (63 articles, 9%) contributed steadily at lower levels. Robotic-assisted surgery emerged after 2021, overall reaching 63/699 articles (9%) and peaking at 26/104 articles (25%) in 2023. Artificial intelligence (AI)-based studies appeared after 2020, reaching 6/112 articles (5%) in 2022, showing steady growth. International collaboration rates were higher in Europe and North America (up to ~58% multiple-country publications [MCP]) than in Asia (<10% MCP). PROMs usage remained broad, with a notable increase in Forgotten Joint Score since 2020. Conclusions: The Level of Evidence: Level IV.
