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

purposeThis study examined the hip morphology of paediatric patients with mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) type IVA (MPS IVA).

methodsThis was a retrospective chart review of 42 hips in 21 children with MPS IVA. Pelvic radiographs and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans of 42 hips and arthrograms of 13 hips were analysed. The bony, cartilaginous and labral coverage of the acetabulum was determined by acetabular index (AI), centre edge angle (CEA) and femoral head coverage (FHC).

resultsThe mean age at the time of radiography was 66.3 ± 21.7 months. The bony, cartilaginous and labral AI in the MRI assessment were 36.3 ± 5.3, 18.3 ± 4.7 and 12.1 ± 4.6 degrees, respectively. The inter-class correlation coefficients (ICCs) for the bony AI, CEA and FHC measurements on radiographs and MRI were 0.936, 0.879 and 0.810, respectively. In the MRI assessment, labrum in 12 of 42 hips appeared as a regular triangle, and it was flat on 30/42 hips. The average arthrographic AI (AAI) was 11.1 ± 2.7 degrees. The ICCs value of AAI versus cartilaginous and labral AI on MRI indicates good agreement but higher in labral AI.

conclusionHips in MPS IVA exhibited obvious cartilage and labrum compensation in response to abnormal ossification of bony acetabulum. Cartilage in MPS IVA hip increases the thickness in the longitudinal direction, while the labrum becomes flatten in the horizontal direction. The AAI may represent intraoperative labrum coverage. The femora-acetabular harmony is difficult to determine using radiography only, and pre-operative MRI and an intraoperative arthrogram are very important in a hip assessment in MPS IVA.
