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

Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is indicated for completely displaced femoral neck fractures (FNF) in elderly community ambulators. Compared to open reduction internal fixation (ORIF) and hemiarthroplasty (HA), THA has favorable outcomes in this population. Cementless fixation with prophylactic cabling is the technique of choice. THA is costlier for hip fractures than for osteoarthritis, but is cost effective for FNF given its lower rate of revision than HA or ORIF. Postoperative home discharge with a home exercise program in appropriate patients may effectively control costs while optimizing outcome.
