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

Previous data have shown patients with osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) have increased lifelong risk of unprovoked venous thromboembolic events (VTE) as compared with the general population, according to sharing common pathological mechanism of endothelial dysfunction. However, whether the risk of VTE increases in those ONFH patients undergoing major hip replacement surgery remains unclear. This is a retrospective nationwide Asian population-based study. From 1997 to 2013, a total of 12,232 ONFH patients receiving partial or total hip replacement for the first time and revision surgeries were retrospectively selected from Taiwan Health Insurance surgical files. By 1:1 matching on age, sex, surgical types, and socioeconomic status, 12,232 subjects without ONFH undergoing similar hip surgery were selected as non-ONFH group. The incidence and risk of post-surgery VTE, including deep venous thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE), were compared between the ONFH and non-ONFH groups. Results showed that 53.8% of ONFH patients were male and the median age was 61.9 years old. During the mean follow-up period of 6.4 years, the incidences of VTE (1.4% vs. 1.2%), DVT (1.1% vs. 0.9%), and PE (0.4% vs. 0.4%) were slightly but insignificantly higher in the ONFH than in the non-ONFH group undergoing the same types of major hip replacement surgery (all
