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

backgroundAvascular necrosis of the femoral head is a progressive perfusion disorder of the hip joint. Progress in avascular necrosis causes structural damage to the affected joint, often requiring total hip replacement.

aimThis article is intended to give the reader an overview of the current literature on total hip replacement of patients with an avascular necrosis of the femoral head.

resultsBefore 1990, patients with avascular necrosis of the femoral head had significantly higher revision rates after total hip replacement. Recent studies, however, showed no significant differences in clinical outcomes after total hip replacement in femoral head necrosis and primary osteoarthritis. Despite the young age of the patients, good long-term clinical results can be expected even in patients with an avascular necrosis of the femoral head after total hip replacement.
