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

purposeTo present a novel surgical concept for the cam-type femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) treatment and to assess and report the clinical outcomes.

methodsWe performed a retrospective study of a single-surgeon case series of six hips in five consecutive male patients with symptomatic cam-type FAI, treated with the mini-open anterior hip approach with a patient-specific template (PST)-guided deformity ablation between 2015 and 2018. We assessed the hip range of motion, iHOT-33, Tegner, and EQ-5D before surgery and after a minimum follow-up of 30 months.

resultsThe average age was 37 ± 13.3 years, average BMI was 31.1 ± 3.3 kg/m

conclusionMini-open anterior hip approach with the PST-guided cam-type FAI deformity ablation presents an accurate and reproducible solution for cam-type FAI surgical treatment, with promising clinical outcomes. Using a PST in the cam-type FAI surgery may present a powerful additional tool in the existing open techniques armamentarium.
