Compression of the Rectum, Bladder, and External Iliac Vein Due to Hip Arthroplasty-Related Pseudotumor.
Article in Cureus, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
A 58-year-old male who underwent left total hip arthroplasty in 1988 for post-traumatic arthritis after an operatively-treated acetabular fracture presented with progressive left hip pain, lower extremity swelling, urinary urgency, constipation, and tenesmus (the feeling of needing to pass stool despite having an empty colon). Imaging demonstrated massive pseudotumor causing iliac vein compression and significant displacement of the rectum and bladder requiring decompression in combination with general surgery followed by revision hip arthroplasty four months later. This case highlights a unique constellation of symptoms due to pseudotumor after total hip arthroplasty, as well as the severity to which pseudotumor can progress, requiring staged decompression with general surgery before revision.
