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

Arthritis of the hip is a degenerative disease characterised by pain and inflammation. It is common and most often affects middle-aged to older adults, with the definitive management being total hip replacement. Advances in the surgical techniques has brought about the popularity of hip preservation surgery in patients with pre-arthritic hip abnormalities, with a goal to prevent progression to early arthritis and subsequently prolong the need for arthroplasty. There is a large body of evidence correlating femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) and the progression of osteoarthritis. Hip arthroscopy is a successful technique in the management of FAI and labral damage. There is, however, less evidence behind its use in those patients with established arthritic changes. After review of such evidence, we believe hip arthroscopy, and other hip preservation procedures, have a key role, and should be considered in the management of early hip arthritis. However, there is no role for such procedures in end-stage arthritis.
