Accuracy and safety of a new robotic arm for both femoral and acetabular side in total hip arthroplasty: a cadaveric study.

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
backgroundTo investigate the accuracy and safety of a newly constructed robotic arm which can cover the whole process of THA, we performed a series of robot-assisted total hip replacement on the cadaver.
methodsFifteen frozen cadaveric specimens (30 hips) were used for this study. In this investigation, united hip system and Longwell robotic-assisted system were used. The entire lower limb was CT scanned prior to surgery. The 3D model was produced based on CT data; the site of the prosthesis, including acetabular anteversion, inclination angle, and the position of femoral prosthesis, was planned. With the assistance of a robotic arm, the surgeon changed the parameters based on the preoperative plan and the actual condition during surgery, and completed the whole procedure. Following surgery, we measured the acetabular anteversion angle, acetabular inclination angle, femur anteversion angle, combined anteversion angle, stem angulation, and canal fill ratio.
resultsThe parameters proved that the acetabular anteversion angle was 16.85 ± 3.00°, the acetabular inclination angle was 40.38 ± 5.37°, femur anteversion angle was 15.90 ± 9.01°, combined anteversion angle was 32.75 ± 9.03°, stem angulation was 1.84 ± 0.99°, and leg length discrepancy was 2.47 ± 1.43 mm. The canal fill ratio (CFR) of femoral prosthesis of osteotomy line in sagittal section is 99.72 ± 1.54% and in coronal section is 62.94 ± 8.91%; below osteotomy line 2.5 cm in sagittal section is 100.00% and in coronal section is 81.48 ± 12.94%; below osteotomy line 7.5 cm in sagittal section is 59.51 ± 12.94% and in coronal section is 89.79 ± 11.13%; femoral shaft isthmus in sagittal section is 56.41 ± 13.80% and in coronal section is 84.95 ± 15.17%.
conclusionThe accuracy and safety of this novel robotic arm are suitable for preparing both the acetabular and femoral sides, providing evidence for clinical trial.
