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

purposeTo assess the importance of home nursing care on the functional outcome, quality of life, and length of stay of patients who underwent total hip arthroplasty.

methodsThis was a retrospective cross-sectional study including patients who underwent surgery from February 2011 to December 2016. Patients were analyzed in two groups: with home care (received nursing care) and without home care. The analyzed outcomes were quality of life, functional outcome, and length of hospital stay. Total follow-up with questionnaires was 24 months.

resultsA total of 244 patients (143 with home care and 101 without home care) were analyzed. No significant differences were found regarding the mean age (

conclusionThe home nursing care did not influence the functional outcome or quality of life of the patients, but there was a decrease in the length of hospital stay in the group that received preoperative nursing care.
