Total hip replacement in adolescents.
Review in Orthopadie (Heidelberg, Germany), 2026. 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
Total hip arthroplasty in adolescents is rare but increasingly performed due to advances in implant technology. The indications differ from adults and are primarily osteonecrosis, secondary osteoarthritis or residual deformities from pediatric hip diseases, such as developmental dysplasia of the hip or slipped capital femoral epiphysis. Anatomical challenges, smaller implant sizes and prior surgery demand careful preoperative planning with advanced imaging. Modern uncemented implants and enhanced wear-resistant articulations, such as ceramic-on-ceramic (CoC) or ceramic-on-highly cross-linked polyethylene (HXLPE) have shown promising durability. While complication rates are comparable to adults, the nature of complications differs, with higher revision rates due to activity levels and anatomical complexity. Standard outcome measurements often show ceiling effects and may not reflect adolescent-specific demands. Long-term data and age-adapted assessment tools are needed to optimize outcomes in this special patient group.
