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

Statins have been shown to reduce myocardial infarction (MI) in cardiac and vascular surgery. MI is common in hip fracture. This study aims to investigate whether statins decrease MI in hip fracture surgery and reduce mortality resulting from MI. Patients aged 65 years and above with a low-energy hip fracture were identified between January 2015 and December 2017. Demographics, comorbidities, predictive scores, medications and outcomes were assessed retrospectively. The primary outcome was inpatient MI. The secondary outcome was inpatient mortality resulting from MI, for which fatal and non-fatal MI were modelled. Regression analysis was conducted with propensity score weighting. Hip fracture occurred in 1166 patients, of which 391 (34%) were actively taking statins. Thirty-one (2.7%) patients were clinically diagnosed with MI. They had a higher inpatient mortality than those who did not sustain an MI (35% vs. 5.3%,
