1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Background: Complications following revision total hip arthroplasty can cause significant morbidity and have a high mortality rate. Patient age and American Society of Anaesthesiologists (ASA) physical status classification system score are important determinants of mortality following revision hip arthroplasty. There is a paucity of high-quality evidence assessing the risk of mortality following revision hip arthroplasty stratified by indications of surgery. The aim of this study is to compare survival of patients undergoing revision THA for different indications. Methods: This retrospective case series reviewed the mortality rate following revision hip surgery performed by a single surgeon between 2009 and 2016 with a minimum 2 year follow up. Kaplan Meir analysis was performed using mortality as the end point. Log rank testing was used to determine if the indication for surgery conferred a difference in survival. Results: One hundred and ninety-eight consecutive cases were done using a tapered modular uncemented stem in 183 patients and were followed up for a mean period of 51.8 months (range, 24-121). Sixty patients died (67 % survivorship) during the follow up period with a 5-year survival rate of 78 %. Revision surgery performed for aseptic loosening had the best survival and hemiarthroplasty had the worst and differences in survival were statistically significant (P = 0.000002). Conclusion: The indication for revision surgery is an important criterion which must be given weightage along with age, functional status of patient and ASA physical status score while planning revision surgery and counselling patients.
