IL-17A-Mediated Immune-Inflammatory Periarticular Mass and Osteolysis From Impingement in Ceramic-On-Ceramic Total Hip Arthroplasty.

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
We present a rare case of symptomatic adverse local tissue reaction in a 54-year-old female patient who had undergone total hip arthroplasty with ceramic-on-ceramic bearing. Inflammatory periarticular mass and osteolysis developed in the absence of cobalt chrome alloy interfaces and a modular neck component. On the pathologic images, there was no clear evidence of gross metal staining of tissues, metal corrosion, and ceramic or metal wear particles. However, there were impingement scars on the titanium alloy femoral neck and acetabular cup associated with a high combined anteversion angle of 75° (stem: 40° and cup: 35°), suggesting titanium debris release in vivo. Immunohistochemical staining proved a predominant infiltration of CD4+ T cells and the corresponding IL-17A response to metal. We conclude that neck-rim impingement may lead to the development of adverse local tissue reaction (periarticular mass and osteolysis) due to a metal hypersensitivity with the production of proinflammatory cytokines (IL-17A) by CD4+ T cells even in ceramic-on-ceramic total hip arthroplasty.
