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

introductionPrimary total hip replacement in hypo plastic proximal femur is difficult due to the presence of a small canal, soft- tissue contracture, fragility of bone, and poor femoral cement mantle when used. Intraoperatively, there could be occurrence of fracture of the femur, inadequate fit, and fill with cement less femoral component.It is found unilaterally in cases of osteonecrosis of femoral head, post- traumatic, and in sequelae of childhood septic arthritis. CASE REPORT: A 45-year- old male patient presented to the OPD with complaints of pain in the left hip and difficulty in walking since for 4 years. The patient had a history of fever and swelling over the left hip in childhood with no treatment taken for the same. X-ray of pelvis with both hips showed deformed femoral head, short neck, narrow femoral canal (Grade 1 Dorr), and arthritic changes in acetabulum. We managed with total hip replacement using Wagner cone stem. Postoperatively, the patient is having good range of motion and having no difficulty in walking and weight- bearing. Functional outcome is good as per Harris hip score.

conclusionTotal hip replacement in hypo plastic femur with arthritis is always a challenging problem. It requires surgical expertise and proper implant selection and pre-operative planning, which prevents intraoperative and post-operative complications. Wagner cone stem is a very good option in managing this type of patients.
