Economic analyses of fast-track total hip and knee arthroplasty: a systematic review.
Synthesis in European journal of orthopaedic surgery & traumatology : orthopedie traumatologie, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 23 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
purposeThe number of total hip (THA) and knee arthroplasties (TKA) grows constantly which causes enormously rising costs for healthcare systems. The aim of this systematic literature review was to evaluate whether a cost reduction can be achieved by THA or TKA fast-track protocols, which is a multidisciplinary approach aiming at faster recovery.
methodsA systematic literature research was undertaken for the timeframe from 2007/01/01 to 2019/03/04 in PubMed. Abstracts and title of the identified records were checked for eligible criteria and afterward the full text was assessed.
resultsSeven studies were included in the review. All studies showed a reduction in the total cost for fast-track THA and TKA. Most studies based their cost calculations on the amount of days the patients spend in the hospital.
conclusionUsing a fast-track protocol can significantly reduce the overall costs of the treatment.
