[Risk factors and prevention strategies for periprosthetic femoral fractures in hip arthroplasty].
Review in Orthopadie (Heidelberg, Germany), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
backgroundPeriprosthetic fractures represent a major complication following joint replacement surgery, particularly total hip arthroplasty (THA). Due to demographic changes, a rising number of THAs is expected to lead to an increase in periprosthetic femoral fractures (PPF) in the coming decades. Despite the resulting high clinical relevance, there is as yet no comprehensive overview of risk factors and possible preventive approaches to PPF.
objectivesThe aim of this review is to present current findings and data from various studies and to derive evidence-based recommendations for clinical practice.
methodsNarrative review.
resultsVarious factors, such as advanced age, female sex, and rheumatic conditions, can increase the risk of PPF. In the presence of risk factors, a comprehensive assessment of bone health, including DXA osteodensitometry, should be considered prior to surgery.
conclusionsAn individualized approach is essential in the planning and execution of THAs to minimize the risk of PPF. In cases of confirmed osteoporosis or for women aged ≥ 70 years and men aged ≥ 75 years, cemented stem fixation should be chosen, as uncemented stems are associated with an increased risk of PPF. Overall, the clinical risk profile should be considered in preoperative planning and postoperative care to reduce this complication and improve patient care.
