Trunnionosis in metal-on-polyethylene total hip arthroplasties: Report two cases.
Article in International journal of surgery case reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
introduction and importanceSeveral studies have discussed trunnionosis in metal-on-metal total hip arthroplasties. However, trunnionosis in metal-on-polyethylene total hip arthroplasties has been less frequently discussed. CASE PRESENTATION: In this study, trunnionosis in two male patients undergoing metal-on-polyethylene total hip arthroplasty, which was done to treat femoral head osteonecrosis were reported and discussed adequately. CLINICAL DISCUSSION: Total hip arthroplasties (THA) were done for the treatment of femoral head osteonecrosis in these cases. In the first case, trunnionosis occurred one year after the revision of the primary THA, and in the second case occurred ten years after the primary THA. Both of these cases were presented with reduced range of motion. After surgery, the symptoms were resolved, and the patients remained complication-free until the last follow-up.
conclusionThis report raises awareness regarding the importance of trunnionosis as a serious complication of modular total hip arthroplasty.
