When performing a total hip arthroplasty, it is essential to correct any pre-existing leg-length discrepancy during surgery.

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
Leg-length discrepancy (LLD) in individuals experiencing total hip arthroplasty (THA) is related to a substantially higher fall risk, length of post-operative hospital in-patient stay, elevated implant-related adverse events, and earlier revision. Therefore, it is essential to try to avoid LLD when implanting a THA. Several studies focus on this issue, including the following: Accelerometer-based portable navigation system, preoperative digital templating, robot-assisted surgery, the anatomical marker positioning method (shoulder-to-shoulder) and the artificial intelligence-based three-dimensional planning software system. The aforementioned methods should be familiar to surgeons who perform THA procedures, as a fundamental objective of this surgical intervention is to avoid LLD.
