Eight RCTs including 1982 patients were compared for postoperative function. The 95% CI of the pooled RR is 0.44 to 0.79, suggesting function was better for patients treated with arthroplasty than for patients treated by internal fixation. M-H = Mantzel-Haenzel method; df = degrees of freedom; IF = internal fixation.
