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

Curative effect and prognosis of 3D printing titanium alloy trabecular cup and pad in revision of acetabular defect of hip joint were investigated. Forty-two patients who underwent acetabular revision in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Luohe Medical College were divided into observation and control groups according to different methods of acetabular revision and revision materials. 3D printed titanium alloy trabecular cups and pads were used in the observation group, and non-3D printed titanium trabecular cups and pads were used in the control group. Preoperative and postoperative pain visual analog scale (VAS score), hip Harris scores and quality of life Health Survey Scale (SF-36) scores were compared between the groups. At 3, 6 and 12 months after operation, Harris score and SF-36 score of the observation group were significantly higher than those of the control group, and VAS score was significantly lower than that of the control group (P<0.05). Stability and bone ingrowth of prosthesis in the observation group were better than those in the control group. Revision of the hip prosthesis with 3D printed titanium trabecular metal cups and pads resulted in satisfactory outcomes. Short-term prognosis is satisfactory but the long-term prognosis remains to be further investigated.
