Lower incidence of outliers, but similar clinical outcome with navigated vs. conventional TKA .
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.
A randomized controlled clinical and radiological trial about outcomes of navigation-assisted TKA compared to conventional TKA: long-term follow-up
Knee Surg Sports Traumatol Arthrosc. 2016 Nov;24(11):3381-338680 patients scheduled for total knee arthroplasty were randomized to the surgery with the use of either imageless navigation or conventional extra- and intramedullary instrumentation. The purpose of this study was to compare radiographic and clinical outcomes over a minimum of 9-year follow-up. Data demonstrated a significantly lower incidence of mechanical axis outliers (varus or valgus deviation exceeding 3 degrees from neutral) with imageless navigation compared to conventional instrumentation, though no significant differences in clinical outcome measures or range of motion were observed between groups after a minimum of 9 years.
