Influence of prior hip arthroscopy on outcomes after hip arthroplasty: A meta-analysis of matched control studies.
Synthesis in Medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
backgroundNo meta-analysis exists elucidate the impact of prior hip arthroscopy on the outcomes of subsequent hip arthroplasty. The purpose of this study was to systematically review the current evidence in the literature to ascertain if prior hip arthroscopy leads to inferior outcomes after hip arthroplasty.
methodsPUBMED, Scopus, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library databases were searched on May 20, 2019. Only English publications were included. The primary outcomes were postoperative complication, revision, and reoperation. Secondary outcomes included Harris Hip Score (HHS), Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC), operative time, and estimated blood loss.
resultsEleven studies with a total of 1227 patients were included. The pooled data revealed that patients with prior hip arthroscopy were associated with higher risks for any postoperative complication (P < .00001), dislocation (P = .03), revision (P = .03), and reoperation (P = .02) following subsequent hip arthroplasty. However, there were no significant differences in infection rate (P = .22), HHS (P = .09), WOMAC (P = .19), operative time (P = .52), and estimated blood loss (P = .17) between the groups.
conclusionsPatients with prior hip arthroscopy are at increased risks for any postoperative complication, dislocation, revision, and reoperation following subsequent hip arthroplasty. However, prior hip arthroscopy does not appear to have an impact on the functional outcomes and intraoperative outcomes.
