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

BACKGROUND &

aimsThe number of hip fracture surgeries exhibit an increasing trend due to the aging of the world's population and it is expected to become a serious public health problem in the future. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between mortality and morbidity in patients aged 65 years or older who underwent partial hip prosthesis due to hip fracture.

methodsFour-hundred and forty-three patients aged 65 and above who underwent partial hip prosthesis for fractured hips between 2007 and 2014 were retrospectively investigated. The age before surgery, gender, type of fracture, additional diseases, ASA scores of the patients and time to mortality were investigated in addition to the factors that affect mortality.

resultsOf the 443 patients in the study, 167 were males and 276 were females, with an average age of 80.5 ± 7.2 and 81.1 ± 7.0 years, respectively. One hundred and sixty-two (36.57%) of these patients died within the first year. When the patients were investigated according to age groups, there was a significant relationship between mortality after surgery and patients aged 80 years and above. No statistically significant relationship was found between the time to surgery and mortality. When compared in terms of ASA scores, it was concluded mortality in ASA 3 and 4 groups was significantly higher than ASA 1 and 2 groups (p < 0.001). When hospital stay and one-year mortality rates were compared, it was seen that the length of hospital stay of the patients who died in the first year was significantly higher.

conclusionsIn patients who underwent partial hip replacement after hip fracture, there was a significant relationship between mortality, long hospital stay, patients with an ASA score of 3-4, and patients aged 80 years and above, whereas no relationship was detected with time to surgery.
