Table 4.

Survival of cementless stems and the cemented reference group. Endpoint was defined as revision due to aseptic loosening of the stem. 7-, 10-, and 15-year survival rates were obtained from the Kaplan-Meier analysis. For prosthesis types, see Table 1

A B C D E F G H I J K L
A Age group
B Brand of stem
C Number of operations
D Mean follow-up (in years)
E At risk (7-year)
F % 7-year survival (95% CI)
G At risk (10-year)
H % 10-year survival (95% CI)
I At risk (15-year)
J % 15-year survival (95% CI)
K Adjusted RR a for revision (95% CI)
L p-value
a RR: risk ratio from the Cox regression analysis (other stem brands compared to the cemented reference stems, with adjustment made for age and sex)
