The Use of the Robotic Arm-Assisted System (MAKO) for Hip Revision Surgery.
Article in The archives of bone and joint surgery, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
The robotic arm-assisted system (MAKO) has pioneered a transformative approach to hip joint restoration, excelling in reinstating innate hip joint anatomy and biomechanics. This case represents the initial application of the system in revision surgery following a cut-out complication. A 69-year-old female, previously independent and mobile, presented with left hip pain. X-rays revealed a cut-out complication of the proximal nail, necessitating revision to total hip arthroplasty due to the patient's prior activity level and implant prominence. Utilizing the robotic system, preoperative planning accurately identified limb length discrepancy and guided implant sizing. The system facilitated precise acetabular reaming and optimal component placement. The patient regained functional independence. This report also underscores the system's potential for accurate acetabulum component placement and restoration of hip joint anatomy and biomechanics in revision cases. Future advancements in this technology may expand its role in complex reconstructions and revisions, further enhancing patient outcomes in hip arthroplasty.
