Subclaims¶
Reading the evidence codes
q is the design tier, i the impact, n the sample, and the kind with its r
the rigour judged within that kind: what each code means.
This claim: no standardized effect is recorded in observations/ for it yet, so no benchmark reading is possible.
q3 i? The pooled estimate did not demonstrate a statistically significant difference between late and early cases in HOS-SSS (MD 2.54; 95% CI −7.41 to 12.48); equivalence was not tested. → Ramadanov N 2026

q3 · i? · quant-synthesis · r3
Random-effects meta-analysis of three studies reporting the Hip Outcome Score—Sports-Specific Subscale, where individual study effects were small and inconsistent. The pooled estimate "did not demonstrate a statistically significant difference between late and early cases", with no heterogeneity (I² = 0%).
"The pooled random‐effects estimate did not demonstrate a statistically significant difference between late and early cases (MD 2.54; 95% CI –7.41 to 12.48)."
