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

Dyggve-Melchior-Clausen (DMC) disease is a rare spondyloepiphyseal autosomal recessive disorder characterized by skeletal dysplasia and intellectual disability. Hip arthritis, often secondary to hip dysplasia, presents at an early age. Current literature suggests that osteotomies do not benefit DMC syndrome-associated hip disease but reports of total hip arthroplasty in these patients are lacking. We present a case of bilateral hip replacement in a 31-year-old patient with DMC syndrome. After planning the operation with the use of computed tomography, we chose to use a small-dimension porous cup along with an appropriately sized version control stem in order to address the unique acetabular and femoral deformities. In conclusion, we consider total hip replacement in DMC syndrome to be safe and effective in addressing a challenging hip pathology.
