1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundSince 2014, hospitals with ortho-geriatric fracture centres could be certified as AltersTraumaZentrum DGU® in Germany. To measure the quality of treatment in these centres, a geriatric trauma registry (AltersTraumaRegister DGU®) was established.

objectivesThe aim of this work was to report the results of the pilot phase of the AltersTraumaRegister DGU® from the year 2015. MATERIALS AND

methodsIncluded were 118 patients >70 years with hip fracture or implant-related femoral fractures. Apart from other parameters, the point of surgery, initiation of anti-osteoporotic treatment and the EQ-5D one week post-surgery was measured.

resultsSurgery was performed in 87% of patients within 24 h. Specific osteoporotic therapy could be increased from 4 to 63 patients. The EQ-5D was strongly restricted to one week post-surgery.

conclusionBased on the timing of surgery and anti-osteoporotic therapy, the treatment seems to be successful in the ortho-geriatric fracture centres. For a better evaluation of treatment quality in the AltersTraumaZentren DGU®, implementation of follow-up examinations in the AltersTraumaRegister DGU® is essential.
