Early surgical and functional outcomes comparison of the supercapsular percutaneously-assisted total hip and traditional posterior surgical techniques for total hip arthroplasty: protocol for a randomized, controlled study.
Article in Annals of translational medicine, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundTotal hip arthroplasty (THA) is one of the most commonly performed and successful orthopaedic surgeries. While the long-term success of THA is well documented, there is still significant room for improving patient speed of recovery and return to activities. The surgical technique used during THA has the potential to affect these early outcomes.
methodsThe described design is a single center, prospective, randomized, controlled study. Subjects will be randomized to receive THA using either the supercapsular percutaneously-assisted total hip (SuperPath) or traditional posterior surgical techniques. Subjects will be evaluated using Timed Up and Go (TUG), Timed Stair Climb (TSC), Hip Dysfunction and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (HOOS), and Visual Analog Scale (VAS) for pain level estimation preoperatively, during the hospital stay, and at 2, 6 weeks, and 100 days post-discharge. Other endpoints to be evaluated include: length of stay (LOS); discharge status; transfusion rates; readmission rates; complication rates; operative time; date returned to work; and acetabular component anteversion and inclination angles. DISCUSSION: The described study will determine the effect of a tissue-sparing surgical technique on short term subject recovery following THA in comparison to the most commonly used technique in clinical practice.
