A Comprehensive Literature Review for Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA): Part 2-Material Selection Criteria and Methods.
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. It is linked to trial NCT07655388 (Impact of Dressing Type and Dressing Change Frequency on Surgical Wound Healing Following Primary Total Hip Arthroplasty), which is not on this map. Cited by 9 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.

Abstract
Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA) is a widely used surgical procedure to restore mobility and reduce pain in patients with hip joint disorders. Implant success and longevity are influenced by the selection of appropriate materials. This study presents a comprehensive literature review based on structured searches in Scopus and Web of Science, focusing on material selection criteria and methods in THA. The inclusion criteria targeted original studies and reviews addressing material properties, selection techniques, and clinical performance. A bibliometric analysis and keyword co-occurrence network were used to highlight major research themes. The review examines traditional materials such as Metal-on-Polyethylene (MoP), as well as advanced options like ceramics, composites, and Functionally Graded Materials (FGMs). Key challenges discussed include aseptic loosening, wear resistance, and stress shielding. Selection methodologies such as Multi-Criteria Decision-Making (MCDM), Weighted Properties Methods (WPM), and computational tools like Ashby charts and CES Selector are analyzed. The findings from international arthroplasty registries show that more than half of implant failures are linked to material-related factors. This study therefore aims to guide material selection processes in THA by aligning clinical performance with biomechanical and biological requirements, supporting improved implant outcomes and long-term surgical success. Future developments should focus on patient-specific solutions and continuous innovation.
