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

backgroundPatient management and education are essential for successful fast-track hip/knee arthroplasty. Individual risk stratification as well as educational seminars play an important role in optimizing preoperative risk factors.

objectivesPreoperative risk factors are discussed, and optimization strategies are highlighted in the context of the current literature. Further, our own results of an interdisciplinary patient seminar and a patient information app shall be discussed. MATERIALS AND

methodsIn addition to the authors' own strategy concerning preoperative patient management and the execution of the patient information seminar and app, the essential papers from the literature will be discussed.

resultsPreoperative risk factors (diabetes, obesity, anaemia, etc.) bear the danger of a prolonged length-of-stay with increased morbidity and mortality. Preoperative optimization can reduce the risk of complications and minimize the failure of the fast-track pathway. Educational seminars and patient information apps may reduce anxiety and postoperative analgesic consumption.

conclusionA good preoperative patient management in fast-track arthroplasty can reduce the risk of complications and a prolonged length-of-stay. A comprehensive patient education with educational seminars and an app contributes to optimally preparing the patient for surgery.
