Total hip arthroplasty with femoral shortening osteotomy using polished cemented stem vs. modular cementless stem in patients with Crowe type IV developmental dysplasia of the hip.

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
introductionThere is still little information regarding the advantages of a using a polished tapered stem for Crowe Type IV developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH). This study aimed to investigate the mid-term clinical and radiological outcomes of primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) with femoral shortening osteotomy using modular and polished tapered stems and to compare the results between the modular and polished tapered stems. MATERIALS AND
methodsThis retrospective review included 32 patients (37 hips) with Crowe type IV DDH who underwent primary THA with femoral shortening osteotomy using a modular stem (cementless group, 14 hips) or a polished tapered stem (cement group, 23 hips) between 1996 and 2018. Clinical data and radiographic assessments were reviewed to analyze the differences between the two groups.
resultsThe mean duration of patient follow-up of the cementless group (134.4 months) was longer than that of the cement group (75.5 months). There were no differences in clinical results, time of bone union, and survival rate between the two groups. However, the cementless group exhibited a higher ratio of intraoperative fracture and thinning of cortical bone including stress shielding, medullary changes, stem alignment changes, and osteolysis, compared to the cement group.
conclusionsThe findings of this study suggest that THA with femoral shortening osteotomy using both cemented and modular stems can provide satisfactory results. However, considering the occurrence of intraoperative fracture and radiographic analysis in the current study, the cement stem may have an advantage for patients with bone fragility and deterioration in bone quality.
