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
objectiveTo describe the surgical technique, complications and outcome of hybrid total hip replacement (THR) in cats using a BioMedtrix cemented femoral stem and cementless acetabular cup. STUDY
designA retrospective case series. ANIMALS: Cats undergoing hybrid THR between 2020 and 2023.
methodsThe present study was a retrospective review of medical records. Postoperative radiographs were reviewed and implant positioning measured. Owner-reported follow-up was obtained via questionnaire utilizing the short-form feline musculoskeletal pain index (sf-FMPI).
resultsA total of 17 hybrid THRs were performed with two cats undergoing bilateral THR. A 12 mm BioMedtrix micro BFX acetabular cup was placed in all cats in combination with a CFX femoral stem. Follow up imaging demonstrated no change in implant position. No intra- or postoperative complications were reported. Hybrid THR was successfully performed in one case as a revision strategy for recurrent hip luxation following CFX THR. Owner-reported follow-up was obtained for 10 out of 15 cats (mean 438 days postoperatively; range, 185-1084 days). Overall satisfaction was excellent and the mean sf-FMPI score was 2/36.
conclusionThis study demonstrates that hybrid THR using a micro BFX acetabular cup is feasible in cats with a good medium to long-term outcome. These results compare favorably to previous reports of feline THR. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: Hybrid THR in cats has a low complication rate and high owner satisfaction. This technique should be considered for the management of coxofemoral disease in cats and can be considered for CFX cup revision.
