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

backgroundTo compare the clinical efficacy between Orthopilot navigation system and conventional manual surgery in total hip arthroplasty (THA).

methodsElectronic databases were searched to identify randomized controlled trials (RCTs) investigating Orthopilot navigation system versus conventional manual in patients undergoing THA. Outcome measurements include anteversion angle, inclination angle, preoperative leg length discrepancy, postoperative leg length discrepancy and femoral offset. Statistical software Stata 12.0 was used for data-analysis.

resultsA total of 5 studies were finally included in this meta-analysis. The results showed that the conventional manual group have a less anteversion angle than that in Orthopilot navigation system group (weighted mean difference (WMD) = 4.67, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 3.53, 5.82, P = .000). And pooled analysis showed that the inclination angle in Orthopilot navigation group was less than that in conventional manual group (WMD = -4.19, 95% CI = -8.00, -0.37, P = .031). There was no significant difference between the preoperative leg length discrepancy and postoperative leg length discrepancy (P > .05). Orthopilot navigation system compared with conventional manual procedure was associated with decreased of femoral offset by 2.76 (WMD = -2.76, 95%CI = -3.90, -1.62, P = .000).

conclusionBoth Orthopilot navigation system and conventional THA result in significant improvements in patient function with similar overall complication rates and have their own edges in cup position.
