Impact of preoperative mental health status on functional outcome 1 year after total hip arthroplasty
Trial report in Canadian journal of surgery. Journal canadien de chirurgie, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers, 2 of them syntheses 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
Background: The aim of this prospective cohort study was to determine the effect of preoperative mental health status on functional outcome 1 year after total hip arthroplasty (THA). Methods: Data were collected for 677 patients from a randomized controlled trial in Alberta who received primary THA between April 2005 and June 2006 (sex, age, body mass index [BMI], comorbidities, back pain and need for another lower limb arthroplasty procedure within 1 yr after surgery). The Western Ontario and McMaster University Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) and 36-Item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36) mental health component were administered before surgery and 1 year after. We conducted multiple linear regression to determine the effect of mental health on the WOMAC score at 1 year. Results: The mean WOMAC and SF-36 mental health scores were significantly increased at 1 year (p < 0.001 and p = 0.01, respectively). There was a strong correlation between improvement in WOMAC score at 1 year and presurgery SF-36 mental health score (0.13, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.06 to 0.2). Age (–0.34, 95% CI –0.45 to –0.24), obesity (–2.9, 95% CI –5.32 to –0.4), back pain (–5.75, 95% CI –8.04 to –3.46) and awaiting another joint arthroplasty operation (–6.18, 95% CI –8.9 to –3.47) had a negative impact on the WOMAC score. Conclusion: There was a strong correlation between presurgery mental health and the resolution of pain and improved functioning 1 year after THA. We recommend that patients receive appropriate counselling and, where appropriate, medical therapy before THA.
