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

We report a case series of 2 patients with screw/shell interface failure in the Stryker Trident II Acetabular System. Both failures consisted of screw penetration through the Trident II acetabular shell. One failure was observed postoperatively after a revision from a cephalomedullary nail to a total hip arthroplasty while the other was observed intraoperatively during a primary total hip arthroplasty. Both component failures were managed conservatively with weight-bearing as tolerated and radiographic monitoring. These are the first reported cup/screw failures of the Stryker Trident II system and should raise awareness of the potential complication and implant design flaw. When placing acetabular screws, we recommend obtaining intraoperative orthogonal screw radiographs that are tangential to the shell surface to assess for screw/shell failure.
