FACE-TO-FACE EXERCISES ARE NOT SUPERIOR TO TELE-REHABILITATION IN RECENT POST-OPERATIVE TOTAL HIP ARTHROPLASTY: A RANDOMIZED CLINICAL TRIAL.
Article in Acta ortopedica brasileira, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. 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
Objective: compare a face-to-face exercise program (face-to-face group [FG]) to telerehabilitation (telerehabilitation group [TG]), in patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty (THA). Methodology: randomized clinical trial with 24 participants: 14 in the FG, which held weekly exercise sessions with face-to-face supervision in the clinic; and 10 in the TG, which performed exercises at home, with guidance from the booklet and weekly calls from the researchers. All participants underwent 6 weeks of intervention and were evaluated, by a blinded evaluator, in the pre- and post-intervention moments for: pain; kinesiophobia; functional; joint range of motion (ROM); and peak muscle torque (PT). Results: post-intervention only the TG (p = 0.018; d = 1,744) showed improvement in the results of the TUG, however both TG (p = 0.043; d = 1,876) and FG (p = 0.002; d = 1,854) showed improvement in the HHS results. Conclusion: telerehabilitation proved to be as effective as face-to-face rehabilitation in improving PT, ROM and functional capacity of patients in the initial stage of THA rehabilitation. It can be considered a low-cost and easy access alternative in this post-operative phase.
