The impact of body mass index on mortality rates of hip fracture patients: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

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
Obesity has been recognized as a global epidemic as approximately one-third of the world's population. Findings on early and late mortality rates between obese, overweight, and underweight vs normal body mass index (BMI) patients confirm that the obese and overweight patients were found to have lower risk and underweight patients were found to have increased risk of mortality as compared to normal weighted patients. It is unclear if the "obesity paradox" exists with survival outcomes of hip fracture patients. We hereby reviewed early (in-hospital and 30-day mortality) and late mortality (≥ 1-year) rates between obese, overweight, and underweight vs normal body mass index (BMI) patients with hip fractures. PubMed, Embase, ScienceDirect, CENTRAL, and Google Scholar were searched for studies reporting mortality rates of hip fracture patients based on BMI. We pooled crude and adjusted mortality rates in a random-effects model. Eleven studies were included. Meta-analysis indicated significantly reduced risk of early (RR: 0.64 95% CI: 0.59, 0.69 I
