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

backgroundPelvic discontinuity causes severe destruction of the acetabular bony walls and is particularly difficult to manage. This article reports the short-term results and complications encountered in the management of loosening of the acetabular cup with pelvic discontinuity using an acetabular cup with an intramedullary iliac stem combined with an extramedullary iliac plate. MATERIAL AND

methodsAs part of this monocentric retrospective case analysis all patients who underwent acetabular revision surgery after THR due to loosening of the acetabular cup with pelvic discontinuity in this clinic from January 2016 to June 2017 were identified (n = 16). All patients underwent routine clinical and radiological follow-up. In addition, the Harris hip score (HHS) and the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities osteoarthritis index (WOMAC) were evaluated as part of a 1-year follow-up.

resultsAll patients were treated with an acetabular revision cup of appropriate size with intramedullary iliac stem combined with an anatomical extramedullary iliac plate. On clinical follow-up at 1 year (median follow-up time 14.5 ± 3.3 months), the average HHS was 69.3 ± 14.1 and the average WOMAC was 79.3 ± 11.7. Complications were registered in 7 out of the 16 patients whereby 1 showed aseptic loosening of the revision cup, dislocations were reported in 4 cases and infections in 2 cases. In the case of the two patients with infections a Girdlestone resection arthroplasty had to be performed.

conclusionThe overall complications and postoperative outcome in revision surgery after THR reported in the literature were compared to the results of this study. Compared to the results of salvage procedures using large or bipolar heads and Girdlestone resection arthroplasty, satisfactory results were obtained using the acetabular cup with an intramedullary iliac stem combined with an extramedullary iliac plate.
