Pigmented villonodular synovitis managed by total synovectomy and cementless total hip arthroplasty.
Article in European journal of orthopaedic surgery & traumatology : orthopedie traumatologie, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
backgroundPigmented villonodular synovitis or PVNS is a benign proliferating disease of the synovium; it behaves much as a neoplastic process does.
methodsThis retrospective clinical study included 11 consecutive cases who underwent for total synovectomy combined with cementless total hip arthroplasty of PVNS of the hip joint.
resultsThe mean patient preoperative hip score of Harris was 46.1 points (range 30-70 points) improved to 94.3 points (range 90-100 points) at the last follow-up visits. No clinical or radiological evidence of recurrent PVNS or osteolysis or loosening had been detected in our patients.
conclusionTotal synovectomy combined with total arthroplasty (THA) could be considered as the ideal treatment in the case of pigmented villonodular synovitis with major osteoarticular destruction and provided good results, as reported in the current series. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: IV, case series.
