Corrosion of Modular Dual-Mobility Acetabular Components Leading to Acetabular Bone Loss and Protrusio.
Article in Arthroplasty today, 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
Dual-mobility bearings are being increasingly utilized in total hip arthroplasty. Contemporary modular designs often feature inner cobalt-chromium liners that are seated in outer titanium acetabular shells. However, mating of these 2 dissimilar metals may lead to complications. We present a case report of a patient who was found to have osteolysis and acetabular protrusio due to an adverse local tissue reaction from corrosion between a cobalt-chromium liner and titanium acetabular shell that appeared to be well-seated clinically and radiographically. This case suggests that implant failure and associated adverse local tissue reactions may occur even in seemingly well-seated modular dual-mobility implants.
