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

backgroundThe hip dysfunction and osteoarthritis outcome score for joint replacement (HOOS JR) has been widely used to assess patient hip function. The subjective hip value (SHV) has become increasingly recognized as an efficient single-question survey for assessing hip joint function. This study aimed to determine the psychometric properties of the SHV in evaluating hip function in patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty (THA) in correlation with the traditional HOOS JR.

methodsThis was a retrospective review of 1,157 distinct patients who underwent primary THA between January 2021 and December 2023. Scores for SHV and HOOS JR were collected preoperatively, as well as 3 months and 1 year postoperatively. Validity was determined using Pearson's correlation tests between the SHV and HOOS JR.

resultsOverall, the SHV was highly correlated with the HOOS JR at 3 months (R = 0.71, P < 0.001) and 1 year postoperatively (R = 0.79, P < 0.001). Additionally, changes in the SHV showed significant correlations with changes in the HOOS JR between the preoperative and postoperative periods. The SHV also had substantially fewer ceiling effects compared to the HOOS JR.

conclusionsThe SHV is a valid and responsive single-item assessment for hip joint function following primary THA. Despite its limitations, its efficiency and ease of use make it a feasible option for routine clinical assessments, providing clinicians with valuable insights into patients' recovery. Subsequently, the integration of the SHV into orthopedic practice holds promise for enhancing the management of postoperative care and improving patient outcomes.
