The effects of cement fixation on survival in elderly patients with hip hemiarthroplasty: a nationwide cohort study.
Article in BMC musculoskeletal disorders, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06369948 (Quality Of Recovery After Pericapsular Nerve Group), which is not on this map. Cited by 8 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.

Abstract
backgroundHip hemiarthroplasty (HHA) is a common treatment for hip fractures in the elderly population. Because of the fatal effects of bone cement implantation syndrome, the safety of cement utilization to enhance implant firmness in the femur is controversial. The aim of this study was to investigate the postoperative survival of elderly patients receiving HHA with and without cement fixation.
methodsClaim data from the National Health Insurance Database and the National Register of Deaths Database were used for analysis in this retrospective cohort study. From 2008 to 2014, 25,862 patients aged 80 years or older treated with hip hemiarthroplasty were included in the analysis. A Cox proportional risk model was used to analyse the effects of cement utilization on postoperative mortality.
resultsThe cemented group had a significantly higher mortality risk than the non-cemented group within 7, 30, 180 days and 1 year after the operation. The effect of bone cement on postoperative mortality was significantly stronger within 7 days than within 30, 180 days and 1 year. In addition, the male gender, age > 85 years and higher score on the Charlson Comorbidity Index were also risk factors for mortality (p < 0.05). Patients who received HHA in lower-volume hospitals had higher mortality rates within 180 days and 1 year than those in higher-volume hospitals. Compared with patients who were operated on by high-volume surgeons, those who received surgery performed by lower-volume surgeons were more likely to die within 30 days (aHR = 1.22), 180 days (aHR = 1.16) and 1 year (aHR = 1.19), respectively.
conclusionsThe postoperative mortality rate of elderly patients undergoing HHA was significantly higher in the cemented group than in the non-cemented group.
