Labral injuries of the hip in rowers.

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
backgroundInjuries of the hip in the adolescent and young adult athlete are receiving more attention with advances in the understanding of femoroacetabular impingement (FAI), labral pathology, and hip arthroscopy. Labral tears have not been well characterized in rowers. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES: The purposes of this study were (1) to describe the clinical presentation of labral pathology in rowers; (2) to describe the MRI and radiographic findings of labral pathology in rowers; and (3) to determine the likelihood that a rower with labral injury, treated arthroscopically, will return to sport.
methodsWe conducted a review from August 2003 to August 2010 to identify all rowers with MRI-confirmed intraarticular pathology of the hip presenting to our institution. Baseline demographics, symptoms and physical findings, and location of the labral tear with associated pathology, management, and early followup were recorded. The review yielded a total of 21 hips (18 rowers, three with bilateral labral pathology) with a mean patient age of 18.5 years (range, 14-23 years). Most of the rowers (85%) were female and the series included prep school (44%) and collegiate rowers (56%). Eighteen of the 21 hips (85%) eventually underwent arthroscopic surgery at our institution.
resultsA large majority of patients had isolated groin pain (71%) and physical findings consistent with impingement (81%). There was no single, dominant location for the labral tears on MRI. Among the 18 patients who had surgery, 10 (56%) returned to rowing, six (33%) never returned, and return data were not available for two (11%) at a mean of 8 months (range, 3-25 months) after surgery.
conclusionsThe repetitive motions of the hip required for rowing may be a factor leading to intraarticular labral injuries in the athletes. Underlying anatomic abnormalities of the hip such as FAI may predispose certain patients to these injuries. However, many patients treated arthroscopically did not return to sport at a mean of 8 months after surgery.
