A Comparative Study on the Outcome of Cemented and Cementless Stems during Total Hip Arthroplasty Conversion in Patients with Failed Osteosynthesis of Proximal Femur Fracture.
Article in Hip & pelvis, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Purpose: Cementless femoral fixation has become widely adopted throughout the United States for primary total hip arthroplasty (THA). However, femoral fixation in conversion THA (convTHA) presents unique challenges, and optimal strategies have not been extensively studied. This study investigated differences in outcomes for cemented versus cementless femoral fixation in convTHA for patients with failed osteosynthesis after proximal femur fracture. Materials and Methods: Data was retrospectively collected for 75 patients who underwent convTHA after previous proximal femur fracture. Based on type of femoral fixation type at time of conversion, patients were sorted into two cohorts, cemented (n=19) or cementless (n=56). Demographic, surgical, and outcome variables, including revision and complication rates, were collected and compared between the cemented and cementless cohorts. Statistical analyses were performed using multivariate regression analyses. Results: As compared to the cemented cohort, patients for whom cementless implants were chosen tended to be younger ( Conclusion: Our results revealed shorter operative times with cementless femoral fixation in convTHA, but no significant difference in LOS, discharge disposition, revision rate, or complication rate when compared with cemented fixation.
