Algorithm for anticoagulation management in geriatric hip fracture patients--Surgeons save Blood.
Review in Zeitschrift fur Gerontologie und Geriatrie, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
During the past decades, the number of hip fractures has been increasing steadily. Perioperative thromboprophylaxis has become a routine aspect in the care of geriatric hip fracture patients. In addition, a large proportion of these patients are already anticoagulated because of internistic comorbidities before they sustained the hip fracture. Although the management of preexisting anticoagulation in both orthopedic elective and emergency procedures is well reported, proximal femoral fractures are classified as "acute" and therefore represent neither of these two categories. In this study, we review the different options of handling preexisting anticoagulation and antiaggregation as well as perioperative thromboprophylaxis. The Innsbruck Algorithm for the management of anticoagulation in geriatric hip fracture patients suggests how perioperative bleeding risk can be minimized, while still addressing the underlying disease.
