original publication.
This study has been identified as potentially high impact.
OE's AI-driven High Impact metric estimates the influence a paper is likely to have by integrating signals from both the journal in which it is published and the scientific content of the article itself.
Developed using state-of-the-art natural language processing, the OE High Impact model more accurately predicts a study's future citation performance than journal impact factor alone.
This enables earlier recognition of clinically meaningful research and helps readers focus on articles most likely to shape future practice.
Computer-Navigated Versus Conventional Total Knee Arthroplasty: A Prospective Randomized Trial
J Bone Joint Surg Am. 2012 Oct 10. doi: 10.2106/JBJS.L.00142.520 patients with osteoarthritis in 1040 knees were randomized to undergo computer-navigated total knee arthroplasty for one knee and conventional total knee arthroplasty (TKA) for the other knee. 200 patients received press-fit condylar posterior cruciate-retaining mobile-bearing knee prosthesis, and 320 patients received a posterior-stabilized high-flexion fixed-bearing knee prosthesis. The results of the study suggest that computer-navigated total knee arthroplasty did not achieve significantly better clinical function, alignment, or survivorship, when compared to conventional method.
