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

Implant fracture is a rare but devastating complication of total hip arthroplasty (THA). We present the case of a patient with a history of prior acetabular fracture who underwent conversion to a dual mobility (DM) THA and subsequently fractured at the neck of the femoral component 7 years after surgery. At revision, both the femoral and acetabular components were noted to be clinically retroverted, suggesting chronic anterior impingement as the cause of the catastrophic failure.
