Bony impingement depends on the bone morphology of the hip after total hip arthroplasty.
Article in International orthopaedics, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 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 purpose of this study was to evaluate whether the bone morphology of the hip affects the range of motion (ROM) in total hip arthroplasty (THA).
methodsUsing the CT data of 63 patients who underwent THA, we calculated the ROM of flexion (Flex), internal rotation (Int-R) and external rotation (Ext-R) using 3D dynamic analysis software. We measured the distance between the anterior surface of the stem and anterior aspect of the greater trochanter (GTa length) at the cutting point and between the tip of the antero-inferior iliac spine (AIIS) and coronal plane of both femoral heads (AIIS length), as a parameter of the femur and pelvis, respectively. The relationship between the ROM, bone anatomy and impingement site was evaluated.
resultsWe found a significant decrease in the ROM of Flex and the Int-R to be inversely proportional to the GTa and AIIS length. In Flex and Int-R, the anterior intertrochanteric region often impinges on the AIIS in patients with larger bone anatomy.
conclusionsWe demonstrated that the bone morphology of the hip substantially affects the ROM of Flex and Int-R, especially in patients with large bone anatomy. For these patients we should consider bony impingement in THA.
