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

BACKGROUND Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH; congenital dislocation of the hip, or hip dysplasia) in infants and children occurs when the joint does not properly form. The group 1 Crowe classification of DDH includes <50% subluxation. This study aimed to evaluate 26 hips in 16 adolescents and young adults aged 13-35 years with Crowe group I DDH who underwent periacetabular osteotomy, with a mean follow-up of 4.5 years. MATERIAL AND METHODS Sixteen patients (26 hips; age 13-35 years) with Crowe group I DDH underwent PAO from 2015 to 2019, with a mean follow-up of 4.5 years. Evaluations included clinical indices (Harris hip score, visual analog scale [VAS] pain scores), radiographic parameters (center-edge angle, vertical-center-anterior angle, acetabular index, Sharp angle, Shenton line continuity, acetabular sourcil length), CT angles (horizontal acetabular-sector angle [HASA], anterior acetabular-sector angle [AASA], posterior acetabular-sector angle [PASA]), and MRI measurements of acetabular cartilage length and area. RESULTS Postoperative Harris hip scores significantly improved (71.65±5.42 to 87.12±4.47, P<0.05), and VAS pain scores significantly decreased (5.12±1.33 to 2.24±0.77, P<0.05). Radiographic parameters (center-edge angle, vertical-center-anterior angle, acetabular index, Shenton line continuity), CT angles (HASA, PASA, AASA), and MRI measurements of cartilage length (25.32±8.11 mm to 29.81±8.14 mm, P<0.05) and area (613.73±119.37 mm² to 710.02±117.17 mm², P<0.01) significantly improved. CONCLUSIONS Periacetabular osteotomy significantly improved short-term clinical outcomes, acetabular coverage, and cartilage morphology in the weight-bearing region in patients with Crowe group I DDH. The observed increases in acetabular sourcil length and cartilage dimensions suggest biomechanical improvements, potentially delaying osteoarthritis progression.
