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
backgroundA new non-invasive augmented reality-based portable navigation system was developed for accurate cup positioning during total hip arthroplasty in the supine position. This study aimed to clarify whether the navigation system supports cup positioning more accurately than a conventional goniometer during surgery.
methodsIn total, 60 patients who underwent total hip arthroplasty in the supine position between September 2021 and August 2022 were retrospectively investigated. The navigation system was used for 30 patients (navigation group), and a conventional goniometer was used for 30 patients (control group) to measure radiographic cup inclination and anteversion during surgery. The primary outcome was the absolute value of the difference in cup alignment measured during surgery and via postoperative radiography.
resultsAn assessment of the primary outcome showed no significant difference in the radiographic cup inclination in the navigation and control groups (2.9° vs. 3.2°; mean difference, 0.3°; 95% confidence interval, - 1.4 to 0.9; P = 0.67); however, the positioning in the navigation group was significantly more accurate than that in the control group in terms of radiographic anteversion (3.4° vs. 5.4°; mean difference, 2.0°; 95% confidence interval, 0.4-3.8; P = 0.017).
conclusionsA new non-invasive augmented reality-based portable navigation system resulted in more accurate cup anteversion than the conventional goniometer.
