Reinforcement Ring-Augmented Hip Arthroplasty: A 35-Year Follow-up.
Article in Arthroplasty today, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
During the late 1980s, techniques were evolving to prevent acetabular component loosening. Inadequate acetabular bone stock further complicated this concern, which was traditionally addressed with cementation and bone grafting during this time period. However, one evolving tactic to address acetabular component loosening in the setting of inadequate acetabular bone stock was to augment bone graft with an acetabular reinforcement ring. In 1963, a 26-year-old, active male sustained a right-sided femoral neck fracture following a skiing accident. He ultimately developed a collapsed femoral head and varus deformity of the femoral neck requiring a total hip arthroplasty with a cemented monoblock femoral component and a polyethylene acetabular component cemented into a reinforcement ring. The initial procedure was performed in 1988, and this prosthesis is still functioning 35 years later and represents one of the longest follow-ups of a patient with a primary total hip arthroplasty with a reinforcement ring.
