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 introduce a modified osteotomy method for proximal femur reconstruction (PFR) in total hip arthroplasty (THA) for high developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH).

methodA retrospective study was performed in a series of 24 patients (26 hips) with Crowe III/IV DDH who underwent THA and simultaneous PFR. We used an animated video to illustrate and help understand the procedure for this technique. Patients were reviewed clinically and radiographically with an average follow-up of 31 months. The Harris hip score (HHS) was recorded preoperatively and at 3 and 12 months postoperatively.

resultsAll patients achieved primary bone union. No revision was needed up to the latest follow-up. One patient had a dislocation due to self-fall and received manual reduction under general anesthesia. No patient had intraoperative femoral fractures, sciatic nerve injury, or infection. The mean HHS improved from 33.48 ± 9.06 preoperatively to 84.61 ± 4.78 immediately after surgery and 90.84 ± 4.96 at 12 months.

conclusionProximal femur reconstruction is a simple and practical technique for femoral remolding during THA in patients with high DDH.
