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
Background: The addition of computer navigation (CN) technology in direct anterior approach (DAA) total hip arthroplasty (THA) has the potential to improve restoration of hip offset and leg length. In this investigation, we examine the effect of one fluoroscopic-based CN system on biomechanical parameters in DAA THA with femur-first (FF) workflow. Methods: A retrospective review was performed on 235 primary DAA FF THA cases, with 100 CN cases and 135 in the conventional fluoroscopic overlay (FO) group. Radiographic examination was performed. Radiographic outcome measures included differences in hip center position, femoral offset, global offset, and leg length between the THA and native hips. Intraoperative and postoperative complications were also documented. Statistical analysis was performed using a Results: While there were differences in individual components of femoral offset and the horizontal hip center, mean difference in global offset was not statistically different between the CN (mean: 2.15 mm) and FO (mean: 1.85 mm) groups ( Conclusions: The addition of CN technology to DAA FF THA improved the accuracy and precision of restoring leg length. CN did not significantly affect global offset. There was no significant difference in complications between the CN and FO groups.
