Use of Imageless Navigation in the Conversion of Hip Fusion to Total Hip Arthroplasty.
Article in Cureus, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Conversion of hip arthrodesis to total hip arthroplasty is associated with significant challenges, including accurate restoration of leg length and proper orientation of the acetabular component. Computer-assisted navigation provides real-time data on these parameters that may be a useful augment during hip fusion takedown surgery. Here, we present the case of a 64-year-old woman who presented with symptoms related to a left hip arthrodesis. The patient underwent a left-sided hip arthrodesis takedown and conversion to a total hip arthroplasty (THA). Due to the altered anatomical architecture of the fused hip, imageless navigation was used to assist with the conversion to THA. This case demonstrates that in complex hip arthroplasty procedures, where anatomical morphology is altered, navigation technology can be beneficial in addressing the challenges of achieving optimal placement of acetabular components and establishing appropriate leg length and offset.
