Trial reportActa orthopaedica Scandinavica1995
Evaluation of Boneloc. Chemical and mechanical properties, and a randomized clinical study of 30 total hip arthroplasties.
Trial report in Acta orthopaedica Scandinavica, 1995. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 21 papers, 4 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
We evaluated the mechanical, chemical and clinical properties of Boneloc cement using radiostereometry and a series of laboratory tests. Compared to a standard cement (Palacos) the new cement displayed reduced tensile strength, elastic modulus, curing and glass transition temperatures. The amount of MMA extracted during 3 weeks in methanol was smaller for the Boneloc, but the total amount of released monomers was larger. The adhesion to stainless steel and bone did not differ. Radiostereometric analysis during the first postoperative year in 30 patients randomized to fixation of hip prostheses using either of the 2 cements displayed increased proximal migration of the cup and increased stem subsidence when Boneloc had been used. Part of the stem subsidence occurred inside the cement mantle. On the basis of these findings, we conclude that the inferior fixation in the Boneloc group is mainly caused by its mechanical properties. Other mechanisms, such as increased release of monomers, may also be important.
