Slipped capital femoral epiphysis in a healed Perthes hip.

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
Perthes disease and slipped capital femoral epiphysis (SCFE) in the same child is a rare occurrence. A 7-year-old boy with the left hip Perthes' disease was managed with femur osteotomy. The femur head healed with a spherical congruent hip. After 3 years, he developed right tibia vara which was treated with growth modulation. The deformity was corrected after one and a half years. At age of 15 years, he presented with left side painful limp and typical features of SCFE. The left hip was managed with modified Dunn's osteotomy. The hip range of movements was painless and near-normal range at final follow-up. Though this is the first case of ipsilateral SCFE following healed Perthes in a non-syndromic child, one must always consider SCFE in adolescents with hip or knee pain or altered gait, even if they have had other conditions like Perthes disease in the past.
