Experimental periprosthetic fractures with collarless polished tapered cemented stems.
Article in International orthopaedics, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
purposeAfter cemented total hip arthroplasty, the risk of periprosthetic fracture (PPF) of taper-slip stems is higher than that of composite-beam stems. We aimed to assess the conditions resulting in PPFs of taper-slip stems using a falling weight.
methodsTaper-slip stems were fixed to five types of simulated bone models using bone cement, and the fractures were evaluated by dropping stainless-steel weights from a predetermined height onto the heads. The periprosthetic fracture height in 50% of the bone models (PPFH
resultsFor the fixation with 0° of flexion, the values for PPFH
conclusionThe impact tests demonstrated that the conditions that were less likely to cause PPFs were use of Ti, a smooth surface, a thick cement mantle, and probably, use of SUS.
