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

objectiveMinimally invasive anterolateral approach in hip resurfacing with complete preservation of muscular integrity. INDICATIONS: Primary or secondary osteoarthritis of the hip. CONTRAINDICATIONS: APPROACH: None. Onlay implant: Females>55 years with osteoporosis. Males>60 years with osteoporosis. Severe varus deformity (CCD [collodiaphyseal] angle<100 degrees). History of metal allergy. Clinically relevant renal insufficiency. Radiologic appearance of avascular necrosis stage 3 and 4 according to Ficat. Femoral head cysts>1 cm in diameter. SURGICAL TECHNIQUE: Supine position with possible overextension of the hip, longitudinal incision along the intermuscular septum and blunt intermuscular dissection between gluteus medius and tensor fasciae latae, partial resection of the anterior capsule and anterior dislocation of the hip with complete proximal release of the capsule. Dislocation of the femoral head and dorsal positioning, reaming of the acetabulum to implant the cementless acetabular component, exposition and reaming of the femoral head in extension/adduction and external rotation, implantation of the cemented onlay endoprosthesis. POSTOPERATIVE MANAGEMENT: Prophylaxis of thromboembolism and periarticular ossification. Rehabilitation with weight bearing as tolerated starting on the day of surgery, ergometer training from day 4 after surgery.

results31 patients with osteoarthritis underwent onlay resurfacing via a minimally invasive approach. The Harris Hip Score improved from 43.9 to 97.1 at 12 months after surgery. Adverse events such as fracture, dislocation, nerve or muscle lesions did not occur, and clinically significant thromboembolism or infection was not observed.
