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

Purpose: To assess the diagnostic capability of radiographs (XRs) to detect pincer lesions compared with 3-dimensional (3D) computed tomography scans in patients undergoing hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS). Methods: We performed a retrospective review of all patients who underwent hip arthroscopy for FAIS between September 1, 2020, and October 2, 2022. Preoperative imaging was reviewed. Pincer lesions were defined as a lateral center-edge angle greater than 40°; a Tönnis angle greater than 0°; the presence of the ischial spine, crossover, or posterior wall sign; and the presence of overcoverage greater than 80%. Under "select criteria," patients were classified as having a pincer lesion on XRs and 3D computed tomography reconstructions (CTRs) based on the lateral center-edge angle or Tönnis angle alone, whereas "all criteria" added the presence of the crossover sign and coverage percentage. Statistical analysis was performed to determine the diagnostic accuracy of XRs compared with 3D CTRs. Results: A total of 69 patients met the inclusion criteria. There were 21 male patients (30.4%) and 48 female patients (69.6%). The mean age was 33 ± 13.5 years. χ Conclusions: In this study, we found that 3D CTR detected pincer lesions in patients undergoing hip arthroscopy for FAIS with significantly higher sensitivity than XRs alone. Level of Evidence: Level III, retrospective cohort study.
