[Register data on cemented arthroplasty : A proof for cementless fixation?]
Review in Orthopadie (Heidelberg, Germany), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
backgroundHip and knee implants can be either fixated without cement, press-fit, or with bone cement. Real-world data from arthroplasty registers, as well as studies, provide a broad database for the discussion of cemented versus uncemented arthroplasty procedures.
objectivesWhat is the recommendation for cemented or cementless anchorage of hip and knee implants based on the current evidence from international arthroplasty registries and meta-analyses?
methodsA recommendation is generated by means of a direct comparison of data from the arthroplasty registries of eight different countries (USA, Germany, Australia, UK, Sweden, Norway, New Zealand, and The Netherlands), the comparison of 22 review studies and meta-analyses based on registry data, as well as the evaluation of the recommendation of healthcare systems of different nations. For this purpose, reviews and meta-analyses whose results were statistically significant were selected, as were the annual reports of the arthroplasty registries that were current at the time of writing.
resultsFor knee endoprostheses, a long survival time, as well as a lower risk of revision can be achieved with the help of cemented anchorage with antibiotic-laden bone cement. In patients aged 70 years and older, cemented anchorage of the hip stem implant significantly reduces the risk of intraoperative or postoperative periprosthetic fracture (times four), this applies both to elective total hip arthroplasties (TEPs) and to hemiarthroplasty after femoral neck fractures. Antibiotic-loaded bone cement significantly (p = 0.041) reduces the risk of periprosthetic infection, especially in patients with femoral neck fractures.
conclusionsTotal knee replacement with antibiotic-loaded bone cement is well established in Germany and evidence based. Registry data and meta-analyses recommend cemented fixation of the hip stem in older patients-in Germany the evidence-based recommendations must still be transferred to daily practice.
