Demographics and clinical and economic characteristics of patients receiving total hip arthroplasty with and without muscle atrophy/weakness.
Article in ClinicoEconomics and outcomes research : CEOR, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
This study analyzed administrative claims by a US population with commercial or Medicare supplemental insurance to compare demographics, comorbid medical conditions, and health care utilization and costs among patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty (THA) with and without muscle atrophy/weakness (MAW). Patients were classified into three cohorts: having MAW during the 12 months previous to THA (pre-MAW); having MAW during or over the 12 months after THA (post-MAW); or no MAW claim (no-MAW). In total, 19,607 Medicare and 23,127 commercially insured patients were examined. Controlling for cross-cohort differences, both pre-MAW and post-MAW commercial cohorts had significantly higher total costs ($6,697 and $8,594, in USD respectively) and higher risk of all-cause hospitalization (odds ratios, 1.66 and 1.57, respectively) than the no-MAW cohort (all P < 0.05) during the 1-year follow-up. Similar trends were observed in the Medicare population.
