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

Tranexamic acid (TXA) is a medication that is routinely used to minimize blood loss during surgery. There is minimal literature evaluating the effects of TXA in hip fractures in regards to length of stay, readmission rates, and location of discharge. This study included adult patients who were admitted for hip fracture that required surgery over a 22-month period (May 2017-February 2019). A total of 525 hip fractures were operated on during this time period. Retrospective analysis was performed on patients treated with TXA (n = 27) vs those who were not (n = 498). Primary outcomes were length of stay, disposition after discharge, need for transfusion, mobilization with therapy, and readmission rates. TXA during hip fractures reduced median length of stay in the hip fracture cohort to 3 vs 5 days (
