Comparison of Functional Outcomes and Associated Complications in Patients Who Underwent Total Hip Arthroplasty for Femoral Neck Fracture in Relation to Their Underlying Medical Comorbidities.
Article in Hip & pelvis, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
purposeIn patients with independent mobility, full hip range of motion and sufficient muscle strength for daily life without cognitive impairment, treatment of a femoral neck fracture with total hip arthroplasty (THA) may be a better option compared to bipolar hip hemiarthroplasty. Here, functional outcomes and complications in patients who underwent THA for femoral neck fracture based on their comorbidity status were analyzed. MATERIALS AND
methodsBetween January 2013 and December 2018, 110 patients were treated with THA for femoral neck fractures at our institution. These patients were retrospectively analyzed for clinical outcomes at final follow-up (mean=24.4 months, range: 6-81 months) using the Harris hip score (HHS) and the presence or absence of two potential comorbidities: i) diabetes mellitus (DM; 35 with and 75 without) and ii) hypertension (HTN; 50 with and 60 without).
resultsThe incidence of superficial infections at the surgical site in patients with DM was significantly higher compared with patients without DM (
conclusionSuperficial infections occurred more frequently in patients with DM compared with patients without DM. DM and HTN status are not correlated with HHS.
