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

Hip arthroscopy and femoral osteochondroplasty are commonly used in the treatment of femoroacetabular impingement (FAI). Determining the correct resection depth of the femoral head-neck cam lesion intraoperatively can be challenging. Both inadequate resection and over-resection may result in complications, underlying the importance of using a consistent and accurate technique when resecting and reshaping the proximal femur. Osseous resection to a depth of the subchondral cortical-cancellous bone margin in individuals with FAI has been shown to restore proximal femoral anatomy to within submillimeter differences when compared with control subjects without FAI. This bony boundary may be used as an intraoperative guide to consistently achieve appropriate resection depth. The sclerotic margin indicating the extent of the cam-type deformity can be evaluated with preoperative radiographs and recreated fluoroscopically, giving the surgeon a reliable intraoperative template. In addition, changes in clinical appearance during arthroscopy, particularly identification of the underlying trabecular structure at the cortical-cancellous border during resection, provides a visible, reliable intraoperative guide to resection depth.
