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

Blood vessel and nerve damage are uncommon complications in total hip arthroplasty (THA). With an incidence between 0.1 and 0.2 % in primary THA these complications are rare but can be serious with a high mortality risk. The individual risk is determined by multiple factors depending on the surgeon's skills, the number of previous surgeries and the approach itself. The anatomy of the defect is an essential risk factor. Some procedures, such as the use of screws for cup fixation are associated with a higher risk of vascular and neural damage. The acetabular quadrant system of the hip as described by Wasielewski et al. is a useful tool to visualize the neurovascular anatomy of the hip, to detect the safe zone and subsequently prevent complications. Sciatic nerve palsy after total hip replacement is the most common nerve damage followed by femoral nerve damage. Previous surgery, a posterior approach and excessive leg extension are the most common risk factors for nerve damage. In order to diagnose nerve palsy after orthopedic surgery an electromyogram can be of use to assess the extent and prognosis. This article focuses on vascular and neural complications after total hip arthroplasty and the options for diagnosis, treatment and prevention.
