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

A large variety of approaches are described for standard total hip arthroplasty. All of them are technically based on three different approaches: anterior, anterolateral, or posterior. In recent hip resurfacing, the posterior approach is common, due to large instruments used to ream the femur. Better exposure of the acetabulum is achieved by the posterior approach, but this technique puts the important extraosseous blood supply to the femoral head at risk. The anterior approach preserves blood supply and gives better options to treat the femoroacetabular impingement. If specific surgical modifications and instruments designed for minimally invasive surgery are used, hip resurfacing can be performed with an anterolateral technique. Excellent functional and clinical outcomes have been reported after all three approaches.
