Article in Orthopadie (Heidelberg, Germany), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Short stems in total hip arthroplasty are increasingly being established and offer several advantages in terms of minimal invasiveness and bone preservation compared to standard implants. The rounded design and shorter stem length facilitate better adaptation to natural anatomy, at the same time also posing specific risks and complications. When transitioning to short stems, a learning curve must be considered. Careful patient selection and preoperative planning are crucial, and intraoperative imaging is recommended. The most common implant-specific complications include insufficient osseointegration, leading to subsidence and aseptic loosening, as well as periprosthetic fractures. The risk instability and dislocations as well as periprosthetic infections can potentially be reduced with short stems. This article discusses the frequency, causes, and treatment options for these types of complications and highlights current evidence-based treatment approaches.
