Titanium modular stems in total hip arthroplasty due to developmental dysplasia: a registry comparison with single-taper implants.

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
introductionThe routine use of proximal femoral modularity was discouraged in total hip arthroplasties (THAs). However, titanium dual-taper (DT) implants may provide some advantages over single-taper (ST) stems in cases of complex deformity. A registry study comparing ST and DT stems in dysplasia was designed, aiming to assess: (1) survival rates at long-term; (2) reasons for revision; (3) the profile of failed implants.
methodsThe arthroplasty registry RIPO was investigated for cementless THAs performed for dysplasia since 2000. ST implants were compared to titanium-on-titanium DT stems. Demographics and implant features were collected. Survival rates and reasons for revision were compared. The profile of DT stem failures in dysplasia was defined.
results6429 implants were included in the study, 3642 ST and 2787 DT. The demographic and implant features of the 2 cohorts were not comparable. The DT cohort achieved higher survival rates at long-term (93.9% vs. 91.6%,
conclusionsModularity did not result in lower survival rates in dysplastic patients and may even reduce the rate of aseptic loosening in comparison to ST stems. The rate of implant breakage is not negligible. Younger males are not good candidates for titanium DT stems.
