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

objectivesThe pain associated with osteoarthritis (OA) was thought to be nociceptive; however, neuropathic pain is also observed. We investigated the relationship between hip OA and neuropathic pain using the PainDETECT questionnaire (PDQ).

methodsA total of 159 hips of 146 consecutive patients who underwent total hip arthroplasty (THA) with a diagnosis of OA were enrolled in this study. The prevalence of each pain phenotype was evaluated preoperatively and at 6 months postoperatively using the PDQ. Patient characteristics and numerical rating scale (NRS) scores were compared between a group with possible neuropathic pain (NP group) and a group with nociceptive pain (non-NP group).

resultsBefore THA, neuropathic, unclear, and nociceptive pain was observed in 18, 36, and 105 hips, respectively. The prevalence in the NP group was 54 hips, accounting for approximately one-third of all hips, which decreased significantly to seven hips after THA. A significantly higher NRS score was observed in the NP group, both before and after THA.

conclusionApproximately one-third of the patients with hip OA had neuropathic pain. Therefore, neuropathic pain should be considered when treating patients with hip OA.
