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

Dislocation and instability of primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) is the leading cause for revision surgery, linked with significant financial burden and patient dissatisfaction. It is a multifactorial complication and requires accurate diagnosis and identification of the causative factors, as well as good preoperative planning for revision surgery. Despite all the best efforts, revision can lead to disappointing and frustrating results. We present a complex case of recurrent THA instability that required multiple operations before the identification of the main cause led to a satisfactory outcome. In addition, this is, to our knowledge, the first report of an Aesculap Plasmacup (Aesculap, Tuttlingen, Germany) liner dissociation and the first case where a previously well-united intertrochanteric fracture has been directly linked to recurrent instability. We aim to raise awareness of the complexity of such complications and the need for careful assessment of all the possible causes.
