Trunnion Corrosion in Total Hip Arthroplasty-Basic Concepts.
Review in The Orthopedic clinics of North America, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 24 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
There has been increased interest in the role of corrosion in early implant failures and adverse local tissue reaction in total hip arthroplasty. We review the relationship between the different types of corrosion in orthopaedic surgery including uniform, pitting, crevice, and fretting or mechanically assisted crevice corrosion (MACC). Passive layer dynamics serves a critical role in each of these processes. The femoral head-neck trunnion creates an optimal environment for corrosion to occur because of the limited fluid diffusion, acidic environment, and increased bending moment.
