Bilateral One-half Spica Cast After Open Reduction and Pelvic Osteotomy in the Developmental Dislocation of the Hip.
Article in Iranian Red Crescent medical journal, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundThe prevalence of DDH ranges from 1 per1000 to 3.4 per 100 live- births. One- and-one-half hip spica cast is the conventional technique of immobilization after the open reduction with or without osteotomy.
objectivesIn this study, we evaluated the preference of bilateral one-half spica cast over the one-and-one-half spica cast. MATERIALS AND
methodsEight hips in five patients with developmental dislocation of the hip have undergone open reduction. Salter osteotomy, Pemberton osteotomy and femoral shortening were done on two, two and six hips, respectively. Bilateral one-half spica cast with trochanteric molding was applied for all of the hips.
resultsThe patients' age ranged from 1.5 to 7 years old. The only complications consisted of two osteonecrosis of the head and one superficial infection. No dislocation, graft displacement, nonunion and device failure was occurred.
conclusionsBilateral one-half spica cast is sufficient after the open reduction with or without osteotomy in DDH patients and we can substitute the bilateral one-half spica cast above the knee cast for the conventional one and one-half spica cast.
