Description
James Temple and four co-authors ask in 2026 which hip and knee replacement trials grab the most attention, in journals and online. Randomized trials anchor evidence-based care, yet nobody knew which joint replacement trials drew the strongest citation and social media response.
The team gathered clinically focused trials from four leading orthopedic journals, published between 2014 and 2023. They ranked the trials by citation speed, by total citations, and by Altmetric scores that track public buzz. Then they tested which study traits went with high impact. The map shows what kinds of evidence the field actually amplifies.
