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
unlabelledWe determined the number and incidence of hip fractures in Tangshan, China, in 2010. Compared with data we reported in Tangshan from 1994, the crude and age-specific incidence increased significantly for both sexes, especially in women. Strategies are needed for effective fracture prevention in the future.
introductionThe aims of the study were to determine the incidence of cervical and trochanteric fractures of the proximal femur in Tangshan, China, in 2010 and to compare the incidence with data from 1994.
methodsThe orthopedic departments of 15 hospitals in Tangshan were visited in 2010; the medical records and radiographs of patients who had sustained cervical and trochanteric fractures were reviewed. The absolute number of admissions was collated and the incidence rate per 100,000 person years was calculated, adjusted by different age ranges, and gender. We then calculated the age-standardized incidence in 2010 as compared with those from 1994.
resultsThe population of Tangshan in 2010 was determined to be 3,075,382 (1,558,173 males; 1,517,209 females); there were 1,509 cervical and trochanteric fractures (in 745 males and 764 females). The overall incidence was 47.8 and 50.4 fractures per 100,000 per year for men and women, respectively. Females showed a higher fracture incidence than males in those aged 55 years and over. Comparing the 2010 data with the 1994 findings, the incidence increased by 85% in men and by 306% in women; age-specific increases were observed in all female and male groups (except the 55-59 years age group).
conclusionsCompared with the results in 1994, the incidence of hip fracture has markedly increased in 2010 in Tangshan, China. It is necessary to implement a comprehensive policy for hip fracture prevention in our communities.
