Geriatric Total Hip Arthroplasty: Fixation Strategies, Approaches and Outcomes.
Article in Journal of orthopaedics and sports medicine, 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 (THA) is a cornerstone of geriatric medicine, yet the selection of optimal fixation strategies and surgical approaches remains a subject of intense clinical debate. As global demographics shift toward an aging population, the demand for THA is projected to rise exponentially, necessitating a thorough evaluation of perioperative outcomes and long-term survivorship. This review critically analyzes recent 2024-2025 evidence regarding the biomechanical stability and clinical efficacy of cemented versus cementless fixation in patients aged 70 years or older. Current literature suggests that while cementless technology dominates younger cohorts, cemented fixation provides superior initial rotational stability in the osteoporotic environment, significantly reducing the risk of intraoperative periprosthetic fractures. Furthermore, this report examines the impact of the Direct Anterior Approach (DAA) compared to the Posterior Approach (PA) within the framework of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS), highlighting the DAA's benefits in minimizing soft-tissue trauma and reducing hospital length of stay. Finally, we synthesize modifiable and non-modifiable risk factors for periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) and fracture progression. Understanding these multifaceted factors is essential for tailoring personalized surgical interventions and improving functional recovery in the geriatric population.
