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
backgroundTotal hip arthroplasty (THA) is frequently performed in patients with end-stage hip disease. Periacetabular osteophytes are common during THA; however, these osteophytes should be removed intraoperatively to avoid potential impingement between osteophytes and femoral prostheses and decrease dislocation risk. There are no current standard procedures or surgical technique criteria to remove these osteophytes. Osteophytes around the acetabulum are usually removed with an osteotome, yet this presents certain disadvantages. Hence, this study aimed to introduce a novel and more efficient technique than the aforementioned one, the SH-9Hospital acetabular edge file.
methodsFifty-four patients (54 hips) who underwent primary THA using osteotome and the SH-9Hospital acetabular edge file to remove periacetabular osteophytes intraoperatively were retrospectively studied. Clinical and radiographic data were obtained for all patients intra- and postoperatively.
resultsThe mean osteophyte removal time was 274.6±102.7 s and 51.3±21.1 s in the osteotome and SH-9Hospital acetabular edge file groups, respectively. Intraoperative images and postoperative radiographs showed that acetabular osteophytes were removed thoroughly and precisely by the acetabular edge file and that there was no iatrogenic injury and prostheses malposition in both groups.
conclusionsThe SH-9Hospital acetabular edge file was a novel, efficient, highly precise, and repeatable method for removing periacetabular osteophytes in patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty.
