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

In the setting of femoroacetabular impingement, arthroscopy versus open surgery confers many advantages. However, inadequate bony resection remains a concern and is the leading cause of revision surgery. Several strategies have been described to ensure a more-complete resection during hip arthroscopy. In this current technique article, the authors describe a modified anterior portal site view called the "up-the-neck" view. This view allows for greater visualization of the femoral head-neck junction and alleviates challenges faced when assessing resection intraoperatively. The "up-the-neck" view is achieved by placing a 70° arthroscope in the anterior lateral portal and subsequently rotating the camera 90°. The head-neck junction will appear horizontally, rather than vertically, on this view, which allows for the easy identification of missed imperfections. This may reduce the need for revision surgery and future investigation is necessary to determine the reoperation rates following this technique.
