Long-term Outcomes of Cemented Total Hip Arthroplasty in Patients with Ankylosing Spondylitis at a Minimum Follow-up of 10 Years.
Article in Hip & pelvis, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
purposeThis study was performed to evaluate long-term clinical and radiologic outcomes of cemented total hip arthroplasty in patients with ankylosing spondylitis. MATERIALS AND
methodsA retrospective study of 12 patients (16 cases) diagnosed with ankylosing spondylitis undergoing total hip arthroplasty with cemented femoral stem from November 2002 to January 2006 with a minimum follow up of 10 years. Clinical outcomes were assessed using Harris Hip Scores and measures of pain and range of motion. Radiologic outcomes were assessed with serial plain X-ray. Fixation and stability of implant, enthesopathy of ischium and development of heterotopic ossification were also evaluated.
resultsMean Harris Hip Scores significantly improved from pre-operative levels (58 points; range, 39-81 points) to post-operative (92 points; range, 68-100 points). Mean flexion contracture levels decreased from preoperative (13°) to post-operative (5°), and mean post-operative range of motion improved 106° compared to preoperative levels. No newly developed osteolysis lesions or implant loosening were observed in last follow up X-rays. One heterotopic ossification and one greater trochanter fracture were observed. Greater trochanter fracture was treated conservatively, and was resulted in bony union. No patients underwent revisions.
conclusionThis study revealed positive long-term clinical and radiologic outcomes following total hip arthroplasty with cemented femoral stems in patients with ankylosing spondylitis patients.
