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
objectiveHip arthroscopy has recently appeared as a successful therapy in treating borderline developmental dysplasia of the hip (BDDH). This study aimed to describe the minimal 2-year follow-up after hip arthroscopy for patients with BDDH in the Asian population and use the combination of lateral center edge angle (LCEA) and alpha angles to detect the appearance of impingement in the BDDH population.
methodsThis retrospective investigation was conducted utilizing information from arthroscopically treated BDDH patients in 2018 and 2019. The following patient-reported outcomes were reported: modified Harris Hip Score, Hip Outcome Score-Activities of Daily Living, International Hip Outcome Tool 12-component form, and Visual Analog Scale. We also considered the clinical data regarding radiological measurements, intraoperative findings, interventions, complications, and subsequent surgical revisions, in the analysis of combination angles in detecting the occurrence of impingement. Patients with asymptomatic contralateral hips from traumatic hip injury (pelvic fracture) served as the control group. A 2:1 propensity score matching was based on age, sex, and BMI. A receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was used to identify the thresholds of combination angles and their accuracies.
resultsA total of 77 hips met the inclusion and exclusion requirements. After the follow-up period, most patients showed a considerable improvement in patient-reported outcomes compared to their preoperative values (P < 0.001 for all). The overall rate of complications was 5.2%, whereas the rate of revisions was 3.9%. Increasing preoperative alpha angle age was significantly positively correlated with improving patient-reported outcomes. The combined angle cut-off was determined to be 80.5° (AUC, 0.858; 95% CI: 0.757-0.938; sensitivity (SE), 98.1%; specificity (SP), 74.1%; P < 0.001) for the occurrence of impingement in BDDH population.
conclusionGood patient-reported outcomes and low revision rates can be expected in the BDDH population with careful selection of patients in Asian populations. A combination angle >80.5° could be a reliable predictive factor of impingement in BDDH populations.
