A Comprehensive Literature Review of Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA): Part 1-Biomaterials.
Review in Journal of functional biomaterials, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
The rapid advancement of materials science has revolutionized total hip arthroplasty (THA), a critical orthopedic procedure aimed at restoring mobility and improving patient quality of life. This review investigates the evolution of biomaterials used in THA, analyzing their mechanical, biological, and chemical properties. The study outlines the transition from early natural materials to modern metals, polymers, and ceramics, highlighting their benefits and limitations in clinical applications. Particular emphasis is placed on the development of advanced materials such as highly cross-linked polyethylene (HXLPE), zirconia-toughened alumina (ZTA), and tantalum alloys (Ta), which demonstrate enhanced biocompatibility, wear resistance, and longevity. By examining emerging trends, including bioactive coatings and nanotechnology, this paper aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of current challenges and future directions in material selection for hip prostheses, ultimately aiming to minimize annual revision rates and improve long-term outcomes.
