Nonagenarian hip fractures: Morbidity and mortality at a single institution.
Article in Journal of clinical orthopaedics and trauma, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 16 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
objectivesThe incidence of hip fractures continues to rise dramatically, but few studies have examined these injuries in the population of individuals over 90 years of age, which is one of the fastest growing populations. We present the largest such study specifically examining hip fractures in the super-elderly.
methodsA review of 216 hip fracture patients over 90 years of age were examined for immediate postoperative complications and in-house, 30-day, and 1-year mortality.
resultsOverall 1-year mortality was 38.1%. Statistically-significant risk factors for 1-year mortality included oncologic fracture, dementia, and CHF. Fracture classification and hospital length of stay were associated with perioperative complications including anemia and pneumonia.
conclusionThe nonagenarian hip fracture is associated with a higher 1-year mortality than prior reported rates of mortality for elderly hip fractures. Factors previously reported to influence the risk of 1-year mortality in hip fractures are not observed in the super-elderly.
