Screening of Newborns and Infants for Developmental Dysplasia of the Hip: A Systematic Review.
Review in Indian journal of orthopaedics, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 19 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundDevelopmental dysplasia of hip (DDH) is a common disorder of childhood and has a good prognosis when treated at an early age. In spite of being a significant concern, many children with DDH are not picked early and present late at walking age. In our country, it is presumed to be due to absence of a national policy for screening of DDH. Screening programmes including the combination of clinical and radiological methods in different ways have been suggested. However, the exact method of screening is controversial. PURPOSE: To analyze effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of various screening methods for DDH. STUDY
designSystematic review.
methodsThis review was conducted in accordance with PRISMA guidelines. Medline database was explored for original case series and randomized clinical trials. Inclusion criteria were English language, screening for DDH in neonates, sample size more than 500, and studies with minimum duration of one year.
resultsThirty-four studies were selected to write the manuscript. This included 23 studies looking for effectiveness of a screening programme and 11 studies comparing various outcomes of different screening strategies. A trend favoring universal ultrasound screening was observed.
conclusionThe literature supports universal ultrasound screening and has proved its cost-effectiveness. However, considering the logistic and financial challenges in our country, immediate implementation of universal ultrasound screening seems impractical. In the absence of any current guidelines for screening for DDH in India, we suggest professional organizations involved in the care of children and public health policy-makers to come together to develop national screening guidelines for DDH.
