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

Hip resection arthroplasty is a useful procedure for the management of complex hip problems and in patients with high surgical and anesthetic risk factors. Unilateral procedures performed for failed total hip arthroplasty have been shown to be successful for pain relief with acceptable functional outcomes; however, to our knowledge, no research exists on simultaneous bilateral hip resection arthroplasty for femoral head osteonecrosis. We present two cases of single-stage bilateral hip resection arthroplasty performed under singular anesthetic procedures for femoral head osteonecrosis. The patients were each able to stand for transfers postoperatively and had no deterioration in pain or function. These two cases demonstrate that satisfactory pain control with preservation of function may be achievable with bilateral hip resection arthroplasty procedures in patients who are not a candidate for more advanced reconstructive procedures.
