1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Objective: This study aimed to retrospectively investigate the short- or medium-term clinical outcomes in patients with Hartofilakidis type II developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) after structural bone grafting of the autologous femoral head with a non-cemented prosthesis during total hip arthroplasty (THA). Material and methods: A total of 80 patients (80 hips), including 46 men and 34 women, were enrolled. The age of the patients ranged from 44 to 61 years (mean age: 50.85 ± 9.22 years). The resected femoral head was utilized as a bone graft for the reconstruction of acetabular bone defects above the acetabulum. Preoperative and postoperative leg length discrepancies (LLD) and Harris Hip Score scores were also measured. Lastly, complication occurrence was recorded. Results: The LLD decreased from 22.13 ± 11.22 mm before surgery to 4.27 ± 2.15 mm after surgery ( Conclusion: Structural bone grafting is an effective method for restoring acetabular bone volume and ensuring good acetabular prosthesis coverage in adult patients with DDH who present with intraoperative bone loss during THA.
