Trunnionosis in total hip arthroplasty with accompanying amyloidosis and calcium pyrophosphate deposition disease.
Article in Radiology case reports, 2024. 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
Metal-on-polyethylene (MoP) is a common type of total hip arthroplasty. Trunnionosis is a rare but concerning complication of this type of implant. Trunnionosis involves wear and corrosion at the femoral component's head-neck interface and may cause a local inflammatory response referred to as an adverse reaction to metal debris (ARMD). We present a rare case of trunnionosis with concurrent calcium pyrophosphate deposition disease (CPPD) and amyloidosis in a MoP implant. ARMD can be linked to crystalline arthropathy and amyloidosis, possibly due to metal ion-induced acidosis. Clinicians should consider trunnionosis in patients with persistent post-surgical hip pain, and order metal ion tests and synovial fluid analysis to aid in the diagnosis of this condition if suspected. Timely recognition enables appropriate surgical revision.
