An improved method for cable grip fixation of the greater trochanter after trochanteric slide osteotomy.
Article in The Journal of arthroplasty, 2010. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
This study proposes a novel method for reattachment of the trochanteric slide osteotomy. The strength of this new fixation system was compared to established configurations. Fifteen sawbone femurs were used. Our configuration used cables above and below the lesser trochanter with a third cable around the shaft of the femur while passing the loose ends through the inferior hole of the cable grip. Displacement of the trochanter was measured with increasing load. Force required for catastrophic failure was also measured. The 3-cable construct resulted in significantly less displacement with increasing load and required a larger force to cause failure (1 cm and 2 cm). We theorize that our configuration produces a biomechanically stronger construct than previously used methods.
