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
introductionA decade ago, a comprehensive study was conducted to investigate the reasons for revision surgeries and their respective frequencies in cases of total hip arthroplasty (THA) and total knee arthroplasty (TKA) based on a complication-based analysis of joint replacement registries. The aim of the present study was to determine whether the causes and risks of their occurrence have changed over the last ten years and to present an updated analysis. MATERIALS AND
methodsA systematic review of national arthroplasty registries from seven countries examined the causes and rates of revisions of THA and TKA. The study focused on a descriptive analysis that provided an updated overview without statistical significance values.
resultsThe most common causes for revisions of THA were aseptic loosening (35.1%), deep infection (18.2%), dislocation/instability (15.9%), and periprosthetic fractures (11.4%). The most common causes for revisions of TKA were deep infection (21.6%), aseptic loosening (18.3%), instability (14.1%), and pain (10.9%).
conclusionThe findings of this study revealed significant shifts in the underlying causes of revision surgeries in the last decade. Notably, septic complications emerged as the predominant reason for revision of primary TKA, while they also gained prominence as a cause of failure of THA. Although aseptic loosening remains the primary cause for re-operation of THA, the relative risk has decreased for both THA and TKA.
