Treatment of cam-type femoroacetabular impingement using anterolateral mini-open and arthroscopic osteochondroplasty.

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
backgroundFemoroacetabular impingement (FAI) is associated with decreased hip function and early hip osteoarthritis. Surgical treatment is often required to halt the process of mechanical degeneration. The study investigated the short-to-midterm results of using a modified anterolateral mini-open and arthroscopic osteochondroplasty in the treatment of cam-type FAI.
methodsThirty-six patients (39 hips), with the mean age of 43.6 years, who had cam-type FAI, were operated by a mini-open and arthroscopy-assisted osteochondroplasty via the Watson-Jones interval between 2002 and 2016. Radiographic parameters and Harris hip scores were retrospectively analyzed after a mean follow-up of 44 months.
resultsOf the 39 hips, the mean Harris hip score significantly improved from 61.1 preoperatively to 84.2 postoperatively (P < 0.01). There were nine hips (23%) undergoing total hip arthroplasty (THA) at a mean of 22 months (range, 3~64 months) due to progression of hip osteoarthritis. The 5-year survival for hip preserving was 74.9%. Cox proportional-hazards model showed that age ≥ 55 years (P = 0.03) and preoperative Tönnis stage II (P = 0.02) were independent risk factors for conversion to THA.
conclusionsThe mini-open and arthroscopic approach allowed direct visualization and improved quality of the osteochondroplasty of FAI hip while avoiding the need for surgical dislocation. This technique could be a safe and viable option for symptomatic cam-type FAI patients to relieve symptoms and improve hip function.
