Finite element analysis of stem migration after total hip replacement.

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
After total hip replacement, the primary and secondary implant stability is critical to ensure long-term success. Excessive migration of the femoral stem can cause implant loosening. In this work, a novel approach for the simulation of the femoral stem migration using the finite element method is presented. Currently, only a few mostly contact-based models exist for this purpose. Instead, a bio-active interface model is used for the bone-stem interface which transforms from the Drucker-Prager to the von Mises plasticity criterion during the osseointegration process. As the position of the implant generally stabilises within one week after the implantation, the migration and osseointegration simulations are decoupled. To understand the effects on the migration, various parameter combinations are examined and a sensitivity analysis is performed. The results indicate that the joint force and the adhesion parameter have the most substantial influence on the migration. Furthermore, the influence of the migration on the subsequent osseointegration process is explored for a numerical example. The proposed model is able to depict the femoral stem migration with values up to 0.27 mm, which are in the order of magnitude of clinically observed values. Further, the model is provided as an open-source Abaqus user material subroutine. Numerical simulation of the stem migration could assist in clinical decision-making by identifying optimal parameter combinations to improve implant stability.
