Total Hip Arthroplasty for Hip Fractures: Time to Surgery With Respect to Surgical Revision, Failure, and Mortality.
Article in Geriatric orthopaedic surgery & rehabilitation, 2019. 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
introductionThere are increasing demands to perform surgery of hip fractures without delay. However, few studies have assessed the time to surgery in relation to outcome measurements.
methodsA total of 643 consecutive patients with a minimum age of 60 years underwent total hip arthroplasty (THA) for an intracapsular hip fracture. For this retrospective case series, demographic data and the outcome measurements-(1) any surgical revision, (2) implant failure, and (3) mortality-were documented from a prospective clinical database. The time from admission to surgery was also documented prospectively and then data were divided into 4 groups according to the time of surgery: (1) within 12 hours, (2) >12 to 24 hours, (3) >24 to 48 hours, and (4) later than >48 hours. The study end point was 2 years after surgery. Final evaluation was conducted for any missing data through a telephone interview.
resultsThe patients comprised 456 women (70.9%) and 187 men (29.1%) with a mean age of 80.2 years (range 60-104 years; standard deviation ±7.4). Descriptive data were without effect in all 4 groups. Time to surgery did not significantly influence revision for any reason (
conclusionTime to surgery had no effect on revision for any reason, implant failure, and mortality in patients undergoing THA for an intracapsular hip fracture.
