The study aimed to compare the three types of bearings in clinical and radiological outcomes. The results taken at 2,5,and 7 years revealed that MoM group had the lowest Harris Hips scores, higher rates of revision, and higher incidence of radiolucent lines in unrevised hips.
Was the allocation sequence adequately generated?
Was allocation adequately concealed?
Blinding Treatment Providers: Was knowledge of the allocated interventions adequately prevented?

Blinding Patients: Was knowledge of the allocated interventions adequately prevented?
Was loss to follow-up (missing outcome data) infrequent?
Are reports of the study free of suggestion of selective outcome reporting?
Were outcomes objective, patient-important and assessed in a manner to limit bias (ie. duplicate assessors, Independent assessors)?
Was the sample size sufficiently large to assure a balance of prognosis and sufficiently large number of outcome events?
Was investigator expertise/experience with both treatment and control techniques likely the same (ie.were criteria for surgeon participation/expertise provided)?

Fragility Indexは、重要な所見の解釈を助けるツールで、結果の強さの尺度を提供します。Fragility Indexは、その所見が有意でなくなるために、二項対立の結果に追加する必要がある連続した事象の数を表します。数値が小さいほど弱い所見を表し、数値が大きいほど強い所見を表します。
なぜ今この研究が必要なのですか？
Metasul metal-on-metal (MoM) articulation has shown lower wear rates than metal-on-polyethylene (MoP) bearings in Total Hip Replacement (THR), especially when used in cementless fixation. However, some evidence has reported that cemented MoM articualtions using 28 mm bearing have high rates of radiolucent lines (RLLs) and aseptic loosening. Hence, this RCT aimed to compare cemented Metasul MOM bearing with MoP and ceramic-on-polyethylene (CoP) bearings.
主な研究課題は何ですか？
How do long term outcomes, such as incidences of radiolucent lines (RLLs), rate of revision, and clinical results, compare between cemented Metasul MoM, MoP, and ceramic-on-polyethylene (CoP) bearings used in total hip replacement?
重要な知見は？
- No difference was found in mean abduction angle (p=0.69) and HHS (p=0.104) at 7 years in 341 hips (86%) between the three bearing types.
- MoM hips had higher incidences of peri-acetabular radiolucent lines of greater and equal to 2mm (p<0.001),
- 12 revisions were performed, 8 in the MoM group, 3 in the MoP group and 1 in the CoP group. There was a significant difference in the number of revisions between the MoM and Mop/Cop groups (p<0.001).
- No aseptic loosening was seen in the MoP and CoP groups.
- 4infections occurred in the MoM group compared with 1 infection in the MoP group and 1 infection in the CoP group.
最も覚えておくべきことは？
The trial indicated that at a 7 year follow up period, cemented metal-on-metal bearings resulted in higher incidence of radioluscent lines around the acetabular component than metal-on-polyethylene and ceramic-on-polyethylene bearings. The metal-on-metal bearing also required higher revision rates and had lower Harris Hip scores.
それが私の患者ケアにどのように影響するか？
The study suggests that patients with 28 mm Metasul metal-on-metal bearing should be followed with caution when compared to the other implants used. It is unclear how these results may be applied to other metal on metal implants. Continuing surveillance of the outcomes of differing implant designs and bearing surfaces is warranted.
