Analysis of the causes of poor incision healing after hip and knee surgery and review of the literature.
Review in BMC musculoskeletal disorders, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
objectiveA retrospective study was conducted to analyze the specific causes and literature review of patients who developed poor incision healing problems after hip and knee surgery.
methodsThis was a retrospective analysis of 250 patients admitted to the Department of Orthopedics and Traumatology of the Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing University of Traditional Chinese Medicine from October 1, 2022 to August 14, 2023 for hip and knee surgery. Among them, patients, 27 males and 39 females, were found to have poor incision healing after surgery; their ages ranged from 22 - 79 years, with an average of 58.71 years; and the patients developed symptoms of poor surgical incision healing from 1 - 8 months after surgery, with an average of 2.3 months. The causes of poor incision healing after hip and knee surgery were analyzed with reference to previously documented clinical data and relevant literature.
resultsAccording to this data, it was concluded that the surgeon's inexperience in surgical incision suturing, unskilled suturing technique, inaccurate suture selection, etc., led to the occurrence of surgical incision healing problems, which accounted for 77.28% of the cases. The patient's age, lifestyle habits, BMI, and other underlying diseases (e.g., diabetes mellitus, rheumatoid arthritis, etc.) caused poor postoperative incision healing in 22.73% of cases.
conclusionPoor intraoperative suturing by the surgeon was the main cause of poor incision healing after hip and knee arthroplasty, which can be avoided by good suturing and strict postoperative dressing changes and nursing care.
