Quality of sexual life after total hip arthroplasty in male patients with osteonecrosis of femoral head.
Article in European journal of orthopaedic surgery & traumatology : orthopedie traumatologie, 2014. 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
backgroundPatients with osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) have a severe impact on their health status, functionality and quality of life. Sexual life is an important component of the quality of life and is still a frequently neglected domain in patients with ONFH. The aims of the study were to evaluate the influence of the disease and the total hip arthroplasty (THA) surgery on quality of sexual life (QSL) in these patients.
methodsA prospective, self-controlled study was done. 247 patients of ONFH who underwent unilateral or bilateral THA were asked to complete a standardized QSL questionnaire, and the score of QSL was evaluated preoperatively and at first year follow-up of post-THA operation.
resultsThe mean age of the patient was 46.8 (range 25-60) years. 194 cases (78.5%, 276 hips) were alcohol-induced ONFH. There is significant decrease (p = 0.026) in sexual relationship impairment on the 0-8 scale from pre-THA (5.3 ± 0.7) to post-THA (2.3 ± 0.4). There is no significant difference for effect on sexual function (p = 0.14) between pre-THA (2.3 ± 0.4) and post-THA (1.8 ± 0.3). There is significant improvement (p = 0.018) in overall sexual satisfaction degree of patients on the 1-5 scale from pre-THA (2.7 ± 0.2) to post-THA (4.7 ± 0.6), but no significant increase for sexual partner.
conclusionONFH has impaired relationships with partner and overall sexual satisfaction degree of the male patients; THA has improved significantly relationships with partner and overall sexual satisfaction degree of the male patients, but no effect on sexual function of the patients and overall sexual satisfaction degree of sexual partner.
