The Association of Alcohol Use Disorder with Perioperative Complications following Primary Total Hip Arthroplasty.
Article in Hip & pelvis, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
purposeAlcohol use disorder is a leading mental health disorder in the United States. Few studies evaluating the association of alcohol use disorder following primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) have been reported. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to determine whether patients with alcohol use disorder undergoing primary THA have higher rates of: 1) in-hospital lengths of stay (LOS); 2) complications (medical/implant-related); and 3) costs. MATERIALS AND
methodsUsing a nationwide claims database from January 1st, 2005 to March 31st, 2014, patients with alcohol use disorder undergoing primary THA were identified and matched to a comparison group according to age, sex, and various comorbidities, resulting in 230,467 patients who were included in the study (n=38,416) and a matched-cohort (n=192,051). Outcomes of interest included comparison of LOS, 90-day medical and 2-year implant-related complications, and costs. A
resultsPatients with alcohol use disorder had longer in-hospital LOS (4 days vs 3 days;
conclusionWith the growing prevalence of alcohol use disorder in the United States, the current investigation can be utilized to evaluate the need for interventions prior to THA which can potentially minimize the rates of morbidity and mortality within this population.
