1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

purposePeriacetabular osteotomy (PAO) is an effective treatment to correct developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH). Traditionally, the goal of correction during PAO is based on parameters measured on 2-dimensional images. The aim of the study is to introduce an optimized workflow of PAO in DDH patients by means of personalized correction goal and accuracy of execution.

methodsFive patients with DDH were prospectively enrolled. Preoperative computed tomography was performed. Surgical planning was done by the treating surgeon and engineers. The planned correction involved reorienting the osteotomized fragment to achieve a target lateral center-edge angle (LCEA) of 25°-40°.The pelvic model with the preoperative and planned correction was analyzed by finite element analysis, which simulated single-leg stance condition. Average and maximal acetabular stresses in different anatomical areas were calculated and are presented as a dashboard at ± 3° increments to help the surgeon determine the ideal correction. To ensure accuracy of the osteotomy and correction as planned, 3D-printed cutting and reorientation guides were used.

resultsAverage operation time (101 ± 23 min) and blood loss (651 ± 176 ml) were comparable to previous reports. Radiographic parameters improved significantly, including LCEA (20.0

conclusionThe workflow with FEA simulations to optimize mechanical stress and 3D-printed cutting guides to achieve accurate execution was an effective and safe approach to optimize DDH treatment. Further refinements and further evaluation of navigation systems aimed at obtaining planned correction is necessary.
