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
This study presents a novel approach to revising failed medial unicompartmental knee arthroplasty into kinematically aligned total knee arthroplasty using an augmented reality (AR) system (NextAR by Medacta International). Traditional methods involve mechanically aligned total knee arthroplasty (TKA), which can be complex and often requires additional components like stems and augments. The proposed technique builds on the caliper-based manual method by integrating AR-based navigation to enhance precision during surgery, particularly in maintaining the patient's native joint line and soft tissue behavior. The procedure includes preoperative three-dimensional planning and intraoperative adjustments based on real-time data on collateral ligament elongation. This AR-assisted technique aims to reduce the technical challenges associated with unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) revisions, offering potential benefits for alignment accuracy and soft-tissue management.
