Cardiac interventions on total knee arthroplasty: a national inpatient sample-based analysis.
Article in Archives of orthopaedic and trauma surgery, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundComorbid cardiovascular diseases have been associated with poor outcomes in total knee arthroplasty (TKA); however, our understanding of TKA with prior cardiac treatment procedures has largely been undocumented. In this study, we examined TKA patients who had undergone different cardiac interventions that addressed their condition. The purpose was to characterize and compare outcomes for a growing patient population not yet analyzed. MATERIALS AND
methodsThe 2016-2019 Nationwide Inpatient Sample database was queried for 558,256 patients who had TKA (ICD-10CM). Backgrounds significant for pacemaker [PM] (n = 8025), coronary artery bypass [CABG] (n = 12,683), heart valve surgery [HV] (n = 4125), or coronary stent [CS] (n = 19,483) were compared against those without, across demographics, admission information, and various complications.
resultsCardiac interventions were associated with increased age, male gender, length of stay, and cost of care. CABG, and Stent groups had more diabetics, but HV had significantly fewer (p = 0.008). PM and HV had significantly less tobacco use and, in addition to CABG, less obesity. Postoperatively, mortality was elevated in the PM [Odds ratio (OR) 2.89, p = 0.008], CABG (OR 2.53, p = 0.006) and CS group (OR 1.94, p = 0.018), but not HV. Myocardial infarctions were elevated in the CABG (OR 3.874) and CS group (OR 5.11) (p < 0.001). PM, HV, and CS had increased odds of periprosthetic fracture by 2.15-fold (p < 0.001), 2.09-fold (p < 0.001), 1.29-fold (p = 0.011) respectively. HV saw increased periprosthetic mechanical complications (OR 1.48, p = 0.006). CABG increased the odds of deep surgical site infection 14.23-fold and CS 9.22-fold (p < 0.001). Postoperative pneumonia was increased in PM, CABG, and CS groups (OR 2.15,), (OR 2.21,), (OR 1.64,) (p < 0.001).
conclusionsPatients who have undergone cardiac intervention are generally at risk for adverse stays. Furthermore, risk factors and complications vary between the groups. Our analysis emphasizes the importance of individualized medical care and as a basis for electing and informing patients for TKA.
