Achieving a Perfectly Spherical Femoroplasty: Pearls, Pitfalls, and Optimal Surgical Technique.
Article in Arthroscopy techniques, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 18 papers.
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
Femoroacetabular impingement describes a pathologic interaction between the bony femoral head/neck junction and acetabulum. Cam-type femoroacetabular impingement results from an aspherical femoral head architecture, which increases early contact along the acetabular surface during hip range of motion. Errant arthroscopic femoroplasty recently has been discussed within the literature to describe a preventable etiology of failed hip arthroscopy, most notably cam over- and under-resection. We present an arthroscopic surgical technique for achieving the perfectly spherical femoroplasty, meant to minimize complications and improve postoperative outcomes.
