1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

The exact cause of the idiopathic osteoarthritis of the hip has not been identified, although the cause of hip degeneration in developmental dysplasia can clearly be attributed to an excessive axial loading. Based on the development of a surgical technique for the safe surgical dislocation of the hip and the associated possibility of intraoperative joint evaluation, we have found motion-induced joint damage in many of these hips. This begins peripherally at the acetabular rim, progressing centrally. This so-called "femoroacetabular impingement" (FAI), leads, by an increased acetabular coverage and/or a missing sphericity of the femoral head, to an abutment of the femoral head/neck junction against the acetabular rim, or even entering of the non-spherical femoral head into the hip. It initiates damage to the labrum and/or acetabular cartilage. Frequently, this becomes symptomatic in the second or third decade of life in patients with increased sport activity. Based on the predominance of the acetabular or femoral pathology, two different types of FAI, the pincer and the cam can be differentiated. Apart from these morphological alterations, supraphysiological mobility and overuse can contribute to FAI. The impingement concept has led to a new type of mainly intracapsular hip surgery.
