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 technique for the Bernese peri-acetabular osteotomy (PAO) using electromagnetic navigation (EMN) and patient-specific templates (PST), and to evaluate it against the traditional fluoroscopic technique.

methodsWe included 40 dysplastic hips. All PAOs were performed using PST and EMN. We recorded learning-related complications. For the purpose of acetabular fragment correction analysis, patients were divided into two groups. In the study group (EMN group, 30 hips), the acetabular fragment was reoriented with the help of EMN. In the control group (XR group, 10 hips), the acetabular fragment was reoriented using fluoroscopy. We compared the difference between the planned and achieved position of the acetabular fragment and outcomes between both groups.

resultsTwo major complications occurred in four PAOs in the XR group only (first ten PAOs). The average absolute difference in planned and achieved lateral centre -edge angle (LCEA) and acetabular index (AI) was 1.2° ± 1.5° and 1.1° ± 2° for the EMN and 7° ± 6.1° and 6.3° ± 6.3° for the XR group (p = 0.02; p = 0.03). The average surgery duration was 183 ± 32 minutes for the EMN and 203 ± 42 minutes for the XR group (p = 0.19). At the last follow-up, the average Harris Hip Score (HHS) value was 88 ± 12 in the EMN and 86 ± 14 in the XR group (p = 0.84).

conclusionsOur study indicates that PAO performed with EMN and PST seems to be a safe and reproducible procedure with a short learning curve. Additionally, navigated reorientation of the acetabular fragment is significantly more accurate than the fluoroscopic technique.
