Study | LOE | MINORS | Number of hips | Mean age, years (range) | Mean followup, years (range) | Revision because of wear (%) | Overall aseptic loosening rate | Outcomes |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Kapadia et al. [19] | III | 6 | 110 | 55 (35–84) | 4 (2–6) | 5/1+ | 1 | Nonsmoker group was 99% (1% revision rate), survivorship which was significantly higher than 92% (5% revision rate survivorship among the smokers (p = 0.0011) |
Khan et al. [21] | IV | 7 | 1767 | 69 (NR) | NR (5 to NR) | 0.8/1.5/1.3* | NR | No significant difference in the revision rates between nonsmokers (0.8%), current smokers (1.5%), and exsmokers (1.3%) (p = 0.67) |
Meldrum et al. [35] | IV | 6 | 165 | 61 (21–83) | NR (5 to NR) | 11.8/1.9+ | NR | Revision rate 11.8% smokers vs. 1.9% nonsmokers; p = 0.0012 |
MINORS = Methodological Index for Non-randomized Studies; LOE = level of evidence; NR = not reported.
