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

objectiveTo determine if MRI findings prior to intra-articular corticosteroid hip infiltration are related to treatment outcomes.

methodsThis prospective outcome study with retrospective MRI evaluation includes 100 consecutive patients with MRI within 6 months before a therapeutic intra-articular hip injection. Labrum, bone marrow, acetabular and femoral cartilage abnormalities were assessed by two radiologists blinded to patient outcomes: the proportion reporting "improvement" on the Patient's Global Impression of Change (PGIC) scale at 1 day, 1 week and 1 month follow-up were compared based on MRI findings using χ

resultsPatients with a normal labrum in the posterosuperior quadrant were more likely to report PGIC "improvement" at 1 week compared to labral degeneration (

conclusionCartilage defects and marrow abnormalities were not associated with outcomes. Patients with a normal labrum in the posterosuperior quadrant had better outcomes at 1 week. Patients with labral degeneration of the anteroinferior quadrant had higher levels of pain reduction at all time points. Females were significantly more likely to report PGIC "improvement". ADVANCES IN KNOWLEDGE: A significant treatment outcome was observed amongst gender, although there were no significant differences in the MRI findings.
