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

backgroundOver the past two decades, there has been an increase in the amount of primary total hip arthroscopies (THA) which in turn has increased the need for THA revision surgeries. The purpose of this study was to quantify the increase in THA revision in Italy, evaluate the causes and types of THA procedures performed.

methodsThe data regarding revision hip prosthetic replacements performed both in public and private structures between 2001 and 2015 was collected by the National Hospital Discharge reports (SDO) carried out by the Italian Ministry of Health.

resultsOverall, 109,746 Revision Hip Replacements (RHR) were performed in Italy from 2001 to 2015 in the adult population. The study shows a greater number of female patients underwent surgery between 2001 and 2015 and the 75- to 79-year age group had the highest incidence of THA revision. The main causes for THA revision were found to be "Mechanical complication of internal orthopedic device implant and graft" (31.5%), "Infection and inflammatory reaction due to internal joint prosthesis" (10.5%) and "Mechanical loosening of prosthetic joint" (8.3%).

conclusionsRevision hip replacement is growing and heavily affecting the population between 65 and 89 years and the main causes of THA revision have been quantified. The average length of hospitalization (LOS) was found to have decreased over the 14-year study period. Understanding the causes and risk factors for revision is essential in identifying avoidable complications and improving preventative care for patients undergoing primary implantation to decrease the revision burden.
