Total hip arthroplasty in tubercular arthritis of the hip - Surgical challenges and choice of implants.
Review in Journal of clinical orthopaedics and trauma, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Osteoarticular tuberculosis of the hip joint can be a debilitating disease that can result in severe cartilage degeneration, destruction, and eventual painful arthritis of the hip. Usually, a secondary affliction to a primary lung disease, Tuberculosis (TB) of the hip can be difficult to diagnose due to its indolent natural history and deep-seated nature of the hip joint itself. Untreated, ultimately TB hip leads to disabling arthritis of the hip with limitation of activities of daily living, livelihood, and socio-economic consequences. Historic surgical options such as arthrodesis and excision arthroplasty of TB hip have limitations and several disadvantages. Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is a viable option to restore mobility and relieve pain in patients with severe post-tuberculous arthritis but has been controversial in the past due to the concerns of disease reactivation. We evaluate the current role of THA in TB of the hip, its various applications in different presenting scenarios with a guide to surgical tips and tricks for managing this challenging condition.
