Comorbidities, clinical intercurrences, and factors associated with mortality in elderly patients admitted for a hip fracture.
Article in Revista brasileira de ortopedia. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT04770259 (Generation of a Pre-surgical Conditioning Protocol for Frail Elderly People in Order to Reduce Hospitalization Days.), which is not on this map.

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

Abstract
objectiveTo analyze comorbidities and clinical complications, and to determine the factors associated with mortality rates of elderly patients admitted with a hip fracture in a tertiary public hospital.
methodsSixty-seven medical records were reviewed in a retrospective cohort study, including patients equal to or older than 65 years admitted to this institution for hip fracture between January 2014 and December 2014. The evaluated items constituted were the following: interval of time between fracture and hospital admission, time between admission and surgical procedure, comorbidities, clinical complications, type of orthopedic procedure, surgical risk, cardiac risk, and patient outcome.
resultsThe average patients' age in the sample was 77.6 years, with a predominance of the female gender. Most patients (50.7%) had two or more comorbidities. The main clinical complications during hospitalization included cognitive behavioral disorders, respiratory infection and of the urinary tract. The times between fracture and admission and between admission and surgery were more than seven days in most of cases. The mortality rate during hospitalization was 11.9%, and was directly connected to the presence of infections during hospital stay (
conclusionPatients with hip fractures generally present comorbidities, are susceptible to clinical complications, and have an 11.9% mortality rate.
