Simultaneous versus staged bilateral total hip arthroplasty: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Synthesis in Journal of orthopaedic surgery and research, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 28 papers, 2 of them syntheses 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
backgroundTotal hip arthroplasty is a common orthopedic surgery for treating primary or secondary hip osteoarthritis. Bilateral total hip replacement could be performed in a single stage or two separate stages. Each surgical procedure's reliability, safety, and complications have been reported controversially. This study aimed to review the current evidence regarding the outcomes of simultaneous and staged bilateral total hip arthroplasty.
methodsWe conducted a meta-analysis using MEDLINE, EMBASE, Web of Science, and Scopus databases. Eligible studies compared complications and related outcomes between simultaneous and staged bilateral THA. Two reviewers independently screened initial search results, assessed methodological quality, and extracted data. We used the Mantel-Haenszel method to perform the meta-analysis.
resultsIn our study, we included 29,551 patients undergoing simBTHA and 74,600 patients undergoing stgBTHA. In favor of the simBTHA, a significant reduction in deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and systemic, local, and pulmonary complications was documented. However, we evidenced an increased pulmonary embolism (PE) and periprosthetic fracture risk in simBTHA. In the simBTHA, total blood loss, length of hospital stay, and total cost were lower.
conclusionThis meta-analysis shows that simultaneous bilateral THA accompanies fewer complications and lower total cost. Well-designed randomized controlled trials are needed to provide robust evidence.
