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

Due to femoral head-neck deformities and hip joint incongruence, patients with Legg-Calvé-Perthes Disease (LCPD) commonly require total hip arthroplasty (THA) in the fifth and sixth decades of life. These patients present additional challenges to arthroplasty surgeons not only because of their complicated hip anatomy but also because patients may have undergone prior operative procedures in childhood and thus present with pre-existing proximal femoral deformities. THA in LCPD patients can be associated with peri-operative complications such as fracture or nerve injury, and the rate of reoperation has been reported to be higher in the LCPD population as compared to the general population undergoing THA. Despite this, multiple case reports and studies have shown the relative long-term success of THA in patients with history of LCPD. In particular, uncemented modular stems are a commonly used implant choice in such cases. This article reviews and discusses the technical considerations for THA in patients with LCPD and highlights three such cases.
