Incidence and Epidemiological Characters of Developmental Dysplasia of the Hip in Lianyungang: Based on Ultrasound Screening: A Retrospective Study.
Article in International journal of general medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Objective: To explore the incidence and epidemiological characteristics of developmental dysplasia of hip (DDH) in Lianyungang and provide a basis for early detection, early diagnosis and early treatment. Methods: Ultrasound screening was performed on aged 4-6 weeks to collect the incidence and epidemiological profiles of DDH. Graf hip ultrasound imaging was used for screening. DDH was diagnosed with a classification of ≥IIa Results: Of the 9803 babies, 4999 were boys and 4687 were girls. There were 117 babies diagnosed with DDH, incidence rate of 1.19%. The incidence of DDH rate at left was higher than that at right (0.89%, 87/9803) vs (0.37%, 36/9803) and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.001). Multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that female (OR = 5.059, 95% CI: 3.012-9.109) and first child (OR = 1.871, 95% CI: 1.169-2.832) were the risk factors of DDH. Due to the small number of relevant cases and the absence of DDH cases, improper swaddling, abnormal amniotic fluid volume and confluent malformation could not be included for statistical comparison. Conclusion: The incidence of DDH in infants aged 4-6 weeks in Lianyungang was 1.19% (117/9803). DDH was more prone to occur on the left side. Girl and first-borns were the risk factors of DDH.
