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

purposeA retrospective analysis of mid- to long-term clinical and radiological outcomes of Korean patients over 60 years of age who underwent hip arthroplasty using a cementless rectangular tapered stem according to Dorr proximal femur geography. MATERIALS AND

methodsFrom January 2007 to December 2013, 107 patients (112 hips) underwent hip arthroplasty using the C2 stem. The mean age of patients was 77.4 years (range, 60-91 years) and the mean follow-up duration was 91.1 months (range, 60-116 months). All patients were evaluated clinically and radiologically with special attention to Dorr femoral bone classification, implant fixation, radiolucent line (RLL), and thigh pain.

resultsAll implants demonstrated radiographic evidence of stable fixation by bone ingrowth without any change in position. The mean Harris hip score improved from 65.5±16.0 (preoperative) to 90.5±15.9 (final follow-up) (

conclusionThe overall survival rate of the C2 stems was greater than 97%; there were no significant differences in survival of the C2 stem according to the Dorr classification. The incidences of RLL of thigh pain and RLL were significantly different among Dorr classifications and (highest in patients with Dorr type A).
