Perioperative Femur Fractures in muscle sparing anterolateral - Modified Watson-Jones approach to primary total hip arthroplasty: A retrospective cohort study.
Article in Journal of clinical orthopaedics and trauma, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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: Periprosthetic femur fractures (PFF) are a rare early complication in primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) that may result in revision and burden the healthcare system. A previous study identified a PFF rate of 8.3 % at 90 days with the modified anterolateral Watson-Jones (AL) approach to THA. This study assesses the PFF rate and risk factors with this approach at 90 days and 1-year post-operative follow-up. Methods: 580 primary THAs performed using the AL approach were retrospectively reviewed for risk factors associated with perioperative PFF including demographics, intra-operative and postoperative factors, and disposition. Results: 507 included patients had a 90-day PFF rate of 1.6 % (n = 8): 6 intraoperative (1.2 %), and 2 postoperative (0.4 %), significantly lower than previously reported ( Conclusion: The rarity of PFF among our cohort highlights the efficacy of the AL approach to avoid this complication.
