Developmental dysplasia of the hip is common in patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty under 50 years of age.

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
introductionDevelopmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) refers to congenital and/or developmental hip instability that can result in hip joint subluxation or dislocation. When detected neonatally, conservative treatment with hip bracing can restore normal hip anatomy. Missed detection of DDH in the neonatal period or late development of DDH often requires surgical intervention to correct the abnormal anatomy. Furthermore, despite surgical intervention, residual sequelae may persist leading to early osteoarthritis of the hip joint requiring joint replacement surgery.
aimThis study investigates the prevalence of hip dysplasia in patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty (THA) under 50 years of age.
methodsThe hip arthroplasty database at a national referral centre was investigated from January 2014 to December 2020. In patients under 50 years of age, those with an adequate pre-operative anteroposterior pelvic radiograph without previous hip arthroplasty were included, while those with inadequate radiographs were excluded. The following measurements were made on the contralateral non-operated hip: (1) lateral centre-edge angle (LCEA), (2) Tönnis angle, (3) acetabular version, (4) acetabular depth, (5) femoral head lateralisation, (6) femoral head extrusion index, and (7) acetabular depth-to-width ratio.
resultsIn total, 451 patients were included in this study. Twenty two percent of the patients had hip dysplasia, based on a LCEA of <25° and 42.6% of patients had hip dysplasia, based on a Tönnis angle of > 10°. The mean LCEA and Tönnis angle were 31.47 ± 9.64 and 9.82 ± 6.79°, respectively.
conclusionHip dysplasia is common in patients undergoing THA under the age of 50 years with over 40% having dysplasia according to the Tönnis angle. Classification of primary and secondary osteoarthritis in the joint registries will benefit our knowledge on the prevalence of DDH in the adult population.
