Hip arthroplasty: patient satisfaction.
Article in British journal of rheumatology, 1983. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers.
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
A total of 1074 patients, the survivors of a multicentre sample of 1085 who, 9-15 months earlier, had undergone total hip replacement, were asked to complete a questionnaire about their satisfaction with the outcome of surgery. Of 1027 (96%) who responded, 90% were satisfied, 5% were unsure and 3% were dissatisfied with the result--2% failed to answer the question about satisfaction. The highest satisfaction rate was found amongst patients who had undergone bilateral hip replacement (96%) and those with a diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis (94%). Dissatisfaction was associated with previous surgery to the index hip and additional surgery following total hip replacement. In all but five of the 98 patients who did not express satisfaction an adequate reason could be found either in the case notes or from questionnaire responses.
