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 observe necrotic findings of the femoral head through the endoscopic examination when performing the decompression procedure widely used in the treatment of osteonecrosis of femoral head. To assess the efficacy of injection of bone marrow aspirated from the iliac crest and new vascularized bone graft into the core of femoral head based on the endoscopic findings.

methodsThe first stage of osteonecrosis of femoral head based on ARCO classification includes 23, second stage 36, and third stage eight femoral heads. Bone marrow transplantations have been performed in 49 hip joints and new vascularized bone grafts in 18 hip joints.

resultsThe endoscopic findings of osteonecrosis of femoral heads are varied, and they can be divided into five categories. The average time in core decompression and bone marrow injection was 15 minutes, and the average time of new pedicled bone grafts was 65 minutes (45-90 minutes). The efficacy of bone marrow injection was 93.88%, and the efficacy of vascularized bone graft was 94.44% when performed based on the endoscopic findings.

conclusionIt is possible to increase the treatment efficacy of the osteonecrosis of the femoral head when appropriate additional treatments are applied based on endoscopic findings in the decompression procedures of pre-collapse osteonecrosis of the femoral head.
