Quality of life after hip fracture: a 12-month prospective study.
Article in PeerJ, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 23 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
backgroundHip fracture is an important and frequent health problem worldwide. To date, there are still limited studies focused on the analysis of health-related quality of life (HRQOL) after a hip fracture in the Spanish population, especially with long-term follow-up.
objectiveTo determine the HRQOL at 12 months after hip fracture and to identify potential factors associated with HRQOL.
designProspective observational study.
settingTraumatology units of two university hospitals in province Cáceres (Spain).
participantsA total of 224 patients were admitted to the unit and required immediate surgery due to a hip fracture.
methodsHRQOL was measured with the EuroQol-5D questionnaire (EQ-5D) and the SF-12 Health Survey.
resultsScores from the visual analog scale EQ-5D decreased significantly (
conclusionsPatients experience a significant impairment in HRQOL H after a hip fracture, especially in self-care, pain/discomfort, usual activities, mobility and anxiety/depression. The decline in the HRQOL is effective the first month and lasts at least 12 months after the surgical intervention.
