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

Antibiotic cement articulating spacers eradicate infection during a two-stage revision for advanced septic hip arthritis (ASHA); however, mechanical complications have been reported. We hypothesized that the rate of mechanical complications would be lower in medullary-sparing (MS) than in non-medullary-sparing (n-MS) articulating spacers. A retrospective study of ASHA using n-MS or MS spacers was conducted between 1999 and 2019. The rate of mechanical complications and reoperation and risk factors for mechanical complications were analyzed. The cohort included 71 n-MS and 36 MS spacers. All patients were followed up for 2 years. The rate of spacer dislocation was lower in MS (0%) than in n-MS spacers (14.1%;
