Hip joint development in children with type IIb developmental dysplasia.
Article in International orthopaedics, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
purposeThe aim of this study was to analyse the results of treatment of sonographically diagnosed type IIb developmental hip dysplasia and to identify residual hip dysplasia using clinical and radiological assessment.
methodsWe retrospectively reviewed the data of 49 children (59 type IIb and 39 type I hips, according to Graf's monographic classification) treated in abduction braces. The mean age was 9.1 years (range 4-15) at latest follow-up.
resultsAccording to the clinical classification of Mckay in Barrett's modification, all the type I and type IIb hips had very good results. No statistical differences were found between type I and IIb hips when comparing both measured radiological parameters and radiological results according to the Severin classification at latest follow-up. Using our criteria (two or more radiological parameters were outside of their normal range), 12 out of 49 type IIb hips demonstrated persistent dysplasia. Of the 12 hips, eight sonograms were normal at the end of treatment and four patients failed to normalise. No type I hips demonstrated two or more abnormal radiographic parameters at latest follow-up.
conclusionsDespite obtaining normal sonograms at the end of treatment, some children with type IIb dysplasia may demonstrate radiographic evidence of persistent hip dysplasia over a longer follow-up period. Our results suggest that these children should be monitored until skeletal maturity.
