No Difference in Dislocation Rates Comparing DMC-THA for Displaced Femoral Neck Fracture and for Osteoarthritis-A Matched-Pair Analysis.
Article in Indian journal of orthopaedics, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Background: We hypothesized the risk of prosthetic instability would be similar in patients treated for femoral neck fracture (FNF) comparatively to patients treated for osteoarthritis (OA) using a dual-mobility cup-total hip arthroplasty (DMC-THA). Methods: One hundred and nine patients (109 hips), with a mean age of 69.6 ± 3 years (65-75 years), underwent DMC-THA using a posterolateral approach for a FNF (study group). Patients were matched for age and sex with 109 OA patients treated by the same procedure (control). Results: Postoperatively, there were four dislocations of the large articulation in the study group, and none in the control ( Conclusion: We found no increased risk of dislocation after DMC-THA using a posterolateral approach for FNF as compared to the same procedure for OA. In this study, function and independence were restored postoperatively in the vast majority of patients. DMC-THA appears as a viable therapeutic option in autonomous patients with a displaced FNF.
