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

backgroundCurved intertrochanteric varus osteotomy (CVO) is a useful treatment option for osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH). However, the effect of proximal femoral deformity in cases of CVO converted to total hip arthroplasty (THA) remains unclear. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of trochanter displacement on impingement and the contact state of the implant and femur in THA.

methodsThirty-eight hips that had undergone CVO for ONFH were reviewed and compared with a control group of 30 contralateral hips that had not undergone surgery. The range of motion (ROM) and impingement patterns and the percentage of cortical bone in the stem placement within the femur were measured by simulation using CT-based three-dimensional template software. We also measured the ROM and the number of joints that achieved the ROM required for activities of daily living when the upward displaced apex of the greater trochanter with osteotomy was resected and compared the findings with those obtained when the apex was not resected.

resultsThe CVO group showed a significantly greater bony impingement in external rotation (68.4% vs. 43.3%, p = 0.033) and abduction (78.9% vs. 33.3%, p < 0.001) than in the control group. The CVO group showed a significantly smaller range of external rotation (19.0° [interquartile range; 4.0-28.8] vs. 38.0° [interquartile range; 36.0-41.8], p < 0.001) and abduction (23.0° [interquartile range; 8.5-38.8] vs. 56.0° [interquartile range; 50.3-60.0], p < 0.001) than in the control group. Significantly more joints achieved the ROM necessary for activities of daily living when the apex was resected than when it was not (10.5% vs. 63.2%, p < 0.001). The percentage of cortical bone in the stem placement position was significantly higher in the CVO group than in the control group in the proximal portion of the stem (25.5% vs. 0.0%, p < 0.001).

conclusionIn cases requiring conversion to THA, we recommend resecting the upward displaced apex to achieve a sufficient ROM and carefully resecting the bone to avoid malignment of the stem.
