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

Aim: Subtrochanteric shortening osteotomy (SSO) is often applied during total hip arthroplasty (THA) in high hip dislocations. The aim of the present paper was to evaluate the results of fixation by autogenous cortical plate technique on sites of SSO in THA for patients with Crowe type IV developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH). Methods: We conducted a historical prospective cohort study and reviewed 67 patients (82 THAs) with SSO performed between March 2016 and May 2020. Thirty-nine patients (48 hips) obtained stability by intramedullary pressure provided by the S-ROM modular prostheses and with or without prophylactic binding by stainless-steel wire after osteotomy and before stem implantation (group A). Twenty-eight patients (34 hips) were fixed with autogenous cortical plate technique and stainless-steel wire or cables (group B). Time of operations, complications, radiographic results and clinical scores were compared. Results: One intraoperative fracture and a dislocation occurred, while component loosening, ectopic ossification and osteolysis were not observed. Group B had a higher union rate at the 4th month than group A (P = 0.015) while there were no significant differences of union rates at the 8th (P = 0.811) and the 12th month (P = 0.722) and of the average healing time (P = 0.181). No significant differences were found in hip function scores (HHS and WOMAC Osteoarthritis Index) between two groups. Conclusion: Fixation with autogenous cortical plate from the cylinder of femoral bone contributes to early bone union of osteotomy ends in Crowe type IV DDH patients compared to those who do not apply the technique. Besides of application of autogenous cortical strut grafts, relevant measures are as well recommended to prevent nonunion after SSO.
