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

purposeDual mobility was introduced by Pr. G. Bousquet to improve the dislocation risk of total hip arthroplasty (THR). The wear mechanisms of this implant remain to be understood. Could enhanced explant wear analysis explain liner wear behaviour?

methodsSixty-six explanted liners were selected. Non-destructive 3D scanning and heat colour treatment allowed reporting wear patterns on both convex and concave sides of the liners.

resultsFor many liners, liner convexity wear was found to be homogeneous, and linked to a longer implantation time. A few liners had signs of blocking of the convexity, leading to excessive internal damage. Intra prosthetic dislocations were found to only have internal circular wear without liner penetration.

conclusionHeat colour treatment showed its effectiveness for highlighting wear patterns. Optimal convexity mobility seemed to be leading to a longer implantation time, with decreased contact stresses on concavity. The retentive rim should have a distinct wear analysis.
