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

rationaleTotal hip arthroplasty (THA) concomitant with subtrochanteric femoral shortening osteotomy for Crowe type IV dysplastic hip has been reported. However, the combination of subtrochanteric femoral osteotomy and revision THA has only been mentioned in one case report. PATIENT CONCERNS: A 67-year-old female had a history of congenital dislocation of both hips. DIAGNOSES: Right hip was diagnosed the aseptic loosening of THA with extremely high replacement of the acetabular component.

interventionsRevision THA concomitant with subtrochanteric femoral shortening osteotomy using a cement stem was performed. Before the revision surgery, primary THA with subtrochanteric shortening osteotomy was performed on the opposite side. Regarding leg length, the actual leg length of the affected side was 9 mm longer, and the subjective leg length discrepancy was 45 mm shorter in the affected limb due to pelvic obliquity. Subtrochanteric osteotomy was performed with an amount of osteotomy equal to the amount of distal translation of the hip center to the original acetabulum. OUTCOMES: As a result, pelvic obliquity improved, and the subjective leg length discrepancy disappeared after revision surgery. LESSONS: The combination of subtrochanteric femoral shortening osteotomy with revision THA resulted in a satisfactory outcome.
