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

Modular femoral stem-head systems are used increasingly due to their ease of application and offset adjustment. However, this modular ity has brought complications of trunnion wear and breakage. Although very rarely encountered, trunnion fracture is a catastrophic com plication that requires challenging revision surgery. This report presents a trunnion fracture of a cobalt-chrome alloy, fully porous-coated femoral stem. Following single-stage revision surgery, full weight-bearing was achieved in six weeks, and the patient was painlessly mobile with a single cane and had a Hip Score of 81 in the last follow-up. Despite all the advantages of the femoral stem and head modu larity, one should remember that a catastrophic complication such as trunnion wear and fracture that require revision surgery is possible.
