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
backgroundOperative treatment of acetabular fractures generally yields good results, but several authors report up to 15-20% of patients developing post-traumatic osteoarthritis (OA). Previous studies have shown that total hip arthroplasty (THA) following post-traumatic OA have inferior results compared to THA for primary OA. The aim of this study was to report on long-term outcome of THA following acetabular fracture, compared to primary OA. MATERIALS AND
methodsWe performed a matched cohort study with data from the Norwegian Arthroplasty Register (NAR). All patients receiving THA following an acetabular fracture between 1987 and 2018 were identified. A 3:1 matched cohort consisting of patients treated for primary OA with THA was selected using propensity scores and matched for age, gender and year of surgery. Survival analysis was performed with revision of any cause as endpoint. Cox regression was used to identify factors associated with risk of revision surgery.
results552 cases were identified, 397 men and 155 women. Mean age was 58.8 (11-91) years. 224 had previously been operated for the acetabular fracture, 328 had been treated non-operatively. Mean follow up time was 8.7 (1-29) years. Implant survival at 10 years was 79.7% (75.6-83.3) and at 20 years 62.4% (55.5-69.3). The hazard ratio for revision was 1.38 (1.07-1.77,
conclusionsTHA following an acetabular fracture can be performed with acceptable results regarding implant survival, however, we report an increased risk for revision when compared to primary OA. Our results indicate that previous operative fracture treatment does not increase the risk for THA revision compared to cases treated non-operatively.
