Total Hip Arthroplasty in Patients with Hip Osteoporosis: A Narrative Review.
Review in Hip & pelvis, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Osteoporosis and osteopenia can affect patients undergoing arthroplasty of the hip, which is typically recommended for patients with severe osteoarthritis or elderly patients with a femoral neck fracture. Preoperative screening for this type of bone loss could be helpful to patients and prevent poor outcomes due to the rate of underdiagnosis of osteoporosis, which can reach 73% in patients undergoing hip arthroplasty. Complications associated with low bone mineral density include periprosthetic fractures as well as an increased revision rate. Although the benefit of antiresorptive medications postoperatively has been demonstrated, when administered preoperatively, worse outcomes were reported compared to its non-usage. Surgical management is as important as pre-medication. According to general recommendations, cemented implants provide greater benefit in osteoporotic patients. However, when using cementless implants, ribbed stems, straight tapered stems, stems with medial calcar contact, and titanium-composed stems can be used to prevent periprosthetic loss of bone mineral density; however, they should not be placed in a varus position. These stems can also be coated with zoledronate and other products.
