The Conversion of Post-traumatic Hip Fusion to Total Hip Arthroplasty: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 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
The goal of converting a hip fusion to a total hip arthroplasty (THA) is to improve mobility and function by replacing the fused joint with a more flexible and functional prosthetic implant. This complex procedure addresses challenges related to altered biomechanics and potential bone loss from the previous fusion. In this case report, we discuss the conversion of a post-traumatic hip fusion to THA in a 25-year-old female with debilitating pain and function impairment to movement. Clinical and plain radiographic findings are discussed. This report highlights the necessity of comprehensive preoperative assessments and individualized surgical strategies to optimize surgical outcomes in patients with prior hip fusions to improve their mobility, pain relief, and overall satisfaction.
