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.

Abstract

purposeDue to age and gender, patients awaiting total knee or hip arthroplasty (TKA/THA) are at a higher risk of osteoporosis. In joint arthroplasty, low bone mineral density (BMD) is a risk factor for implant osseointegration, durability, and prosthesis complications. This study aims to investigate the prevalence and treatment rate of osteoporosis in patients undergoing total joint arthroplasty (TJA).

methodsWe applied a comprehensive literature search through PubMed, Cochrane Library, and EMBASE from inception to July 10, 2021, for studies investigating the prevalence and treatment rate of osteoporosis in TJA patients. The aggregated prevalence was calculated with the random-effects model, and the heterogeneity between studies was checked by Cochran's Q test and quantified by the I

resultsOf 4561 citations identified by the search strategy, 11 studies including 3462 patients were eligible for inclusion. The pooled prevalence of osteoporosis and osteopenia in TJA patients was 24.8% (95%CI: 14.1-37.2%) and 38.5% (95%CI: 29.3-48.0%), respectively. The prevalence of osteoporosis/osteopenia in TJA patients was 64.0% (95%CI: 45.8-80.3%). In terms of gender, the pooled prevalence of osteoporosis in males, females, and postmenopausal females were 5.5% (95%CI: 1.5-11.4%), 29.0% (95%CI: 18.3-41.1%), and 38.3% (95%CI: 13.2-67.1%), respectively. The treatment rate of osteoporosis in TJA patients was 32.9% (95%CI: 15.2-53.1%) by a random-effects model.

conclusionsOsteoporosis is highly prevalent in patients undergoing TJA, especially in postmenopausal females. However, the treatment rate of osteoporosis is low. Considering the possibility of surgical complications, clinicians should strengthen their awareness of pre-operative BMD assessment and manage osteoporosis in high-risk patients.
