Low psoas major muscle area as a risk factor for contralateral hip fracture following intertrochanteric fracture.

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
objectiveThis study aimed to investigate the relationship between the psoas major muscle area as a risk factor and subsequent contralateral hip fractures in patients with initial intertrochanteric fractures.
methodsOf 136 treated for intertrochanteric fractures, 104 female patients had computed tomography done to assess their fractures at initial stage and had been followed up for more than 2 years. These patients were then divided into 2 groups: i.e. those who had a contralateral hip fracture (CF) (n=16) and those who did not (NF) (n=88) groups. We mainly assessed the relationship between the corrected psoas major muscle area (CPMA) at initial fracture and the occurrence of contralateral hip fracture.
resultsThe CF group had significantly lower CPMA than the NF group (p=0.001). There was positive correlation between the CPMA and the period from the initial to the contralateral hip fracture in the CF group. The CPMA cutoff value of 480.98 mm2/m2, was showed sensitivity of 63.6% and specificity of 87.5% in receiver operating characteristic curve analysis for all patients.
conclusionsThe lower CPMA was associated with the contralateral hip fracture within 2 years from initial intertrochanteric fracture. The low CPMA would be a risk factor for contralateral hip fracture.
