Patient-specific factors are associated with severity of chondrolabral injury in patients with femoroacetabular impingement.

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
purposeThe purpose of this study was to evaluate the relationship between patient-specific factors, preoperative radiographic findings, and the presence and severity of chondrolabral damage identified during hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement.
methodsBetween 2014 and 2017, patients who underwent hip arthroscopy for FAI and labral tear were retrospectively reviewed. Patient-specific variables including age, gender, BMI, LCEA, and alpha angle were collected. Surgical reports were reviewed for labral tear position and size, as well as severity of acetabular and femoral chondromalacia.
resultsThere were 205 patients who met inclusion criteria with a mean age of 33 years (range 15-66), BMI 26.5 (range 15.9-44.5), LCEA 32.2° (range 21.0°-56.0°) and alpha angle 59.1° (range 33.0°-86.0°). Greater age (p = 0.023), alpha angle (p = 0.011) and male gender (p < 0.001) significantly correlated with high-grade acetabular chondral damage. Increased LCEA (p < 0.001), increased alpha angle (p = 0.012), and greater age (p = 0.002) were significantly associated with increased labral tear size.
conclusionsGreater age, male gender, increased BMI and increased alpha angle were associated with more advanced acetabular chondromalacia. Additionally, greater age, increased LCEA, and increased alpha angle was associated with larger labral tear size. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: IV.
