Primary Total Hip Arthroplasty in Dialysis-Dependent Patients: 35% Mortality at 5 years.
Article in The Journal of arthroplasty, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundLimited knowledge exists on contemporary results of primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) in dialysis-dependent patients. We sought to analyze the mortality rates and cumulative incidences of any revision or reoperation in dialysis-dependent patients undergoing primary THAs.
methodsWe identified 24 dialysis-dependent patients who underwent 28 primary THAs between 2000 and 2019 using our institutional total joint registry. Mean age was 57 years (range, 32 to 86), with 43% being women and mean body mass index was 31 (range, 20 to 50). The leading cause for dialysis was diabetic nephropathy (18%). The mean preoperative creatinine and glomerular filtration rate were 6 mg/dL and 13 mL/min, respectively. Kaplan-Meier survivorship methods and a competing risk analysis using death as the competing risk were performed. The mean follow-up was 7 years (range, 2 to 15).
resultsThe 5-year survivorship free from death was 65%. The 5-year cumulative incidence of any revision was 8%. There were a total of 3 revisions as follows: 2 for aseptic loosening of the femoral component and one for a Vancouver B
conclusionsDialysis-dependent patients undergoing primary THAs had high 5-year mortality (35%) but an acceptably low cumulative incidence of any revision. While renal metrics remained consistent after THA, only one in 4 patients underwent successful renal transplant. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: IV.
