Cup-cage construct for massive acetabular defect in revision hip arthroplasty- A case series with medium to long-term follow-up.
Article in Journal of clinical orthopaedics and trauma. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
objectiveCup-cage reconstruction has emerged as a possible solution for managing massive acetabular defects with a few existing studies reporting encouraging results at mid-term follow-up. We present our experience with this unitised construct.
methodSix patients (7 hips) with a mean age of 76 years (73-81) were revised due to catastrophic aseptic failure of a primary cup implanted 10-19 years previously, having a Paprosky type 3B acetabular defect.
resultsAt a mean follow-up of 72 months (63-140) no cases have required re-revision. Oxford Hip Scores improved from an average of 8 (1-17) preoperatively to an average of 36 (18-45) at the last follow-up. WOMAC scores preoperatively averaged 76 (49-96) and postoperatively averaged 26.5 points (0-69) at the last follow-up. SF-12 scores improved in both components. One patient showed non-progressive osteolysis around the ischial flange and one had less than 5 mm migration of the construct. One patient died of unrelated causes.
conclusionOur study presents one of the longest follow-up of cup-cage construct and supports the previously reported good results; it encourages the use of this construct in reconstruction of massive acetabular defect, with or without pelvic discontinuity.
