Patients' Characteristics Can Predict Clinical Outcomes Following Hip Arthroscopy by Reflecting the Patterns of Labral Tears: A Retrospective Observational Study.

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
purposeTo evaluate the relationship between morphological differences in labral tears and clinical features of the hip joint in patients who underwent hip arthroscopy. MATERIALS AND
methodsWe retrospectively analyzed data from patients who underwent arthroscopic surgery for the treatment of labral tears. Hip labral tears were morphologically classified as longitudinal peripheral tears (group L), radial fibrillated tears (group FI), radial flaps (group FL), and an unstable labrum (group U). Radiographically, the center-edge angle, acetabular roof obliquity, vertical-center-anterior angle, alpha angle, femoral head-neck offset ratio, and crossover sign were evaluated and compared among the groups. The relationship between labral morphology and these radiographic findings, as well as clinical findings, such as age, gender, preoperative range of hip motion, and the clinical outcomes using modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS) were also examined.
resultsThis study included fifty patients. Groups L and FI were often observed in late middle-aged patients with relatively shallow acetabular coverage. Group FL tears were frequently observed in young males with radiographic features, such as femoroacetabular impingement (FAI), compared to the other groups. Group U comprised mostly young females with relatively shallow acetabular coverage compared to the other groups. For the postoperative mHHS, group FL showed the best score among all groups, with a significant difference between groups FL and FI (
conclusionsOur study revealed that morphologically, different labral tears were associated with different clinical features and radiological findings. Especially, our study can provide predictive findings for hip arthroscopists that younger males with FAI show better clinical outcomes when compared to middle-aged females with shallow acetabulum, which is indicative of degenerative hip labral tears. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: IV case series.
