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

introductionAim of the study is to compare clinical results and patient's satisfaction between direct anterior approach and Hardinge approach in primary total hip arthroplasty.

methodsA group of 30 patients operated with DAA (group B) were compared to 39 patients operated by Hardinge approach (group A). Peri- and postoperative complications, Harris Hip Score (HHS), implant positioning, experienced pain and patient satisfaction were evaluated at a mean follow-up of 30 months.

resultsHHS at follow-up was significantly better in group B (92.2 ± 11.9 vs 95.2 ± 4.5 p = 0.04 Student's t test). There was no difference in femoral stem positioning while cup inclination was significantly better in group B (40.6° ± 6.6° vs 44.3° ± 7.9°, p = 0.04 Student's t test). Overall pain recalled by patients was significantly lower in group B.

conclusionThe introduction of DAA does not affect patients' final outcome but comes with comparable functional recovery and greater patient satisfaction.
