Insurance Payer Type Affects Outcomes after Revision Total Joint Arthroplasty: A Matched Cohort Analysis.
Article in The archives of bone and joint surgery, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Background: The aim of this study is to evaluate the potential effects of insurance payer type on the postoperative outcomes following revision TJA. Methods: A single-institution database was utilized to identify 4,302 consecutive revision THA and TKA. Patient demographics and indications for revision were collected and compared based on patient insurance payer type: (1) Medicaid, (2) Medicare, and (3) private. Propensity score matching and, subsequent, multivariate regression analyses were applied to control for baseline differences between payer groups. Outcomes of interest were rates of complications occurring perioperatively and 90 days post-discharge. Results: After propensity-score-based matching, a total of 2,328 patients remained for further multivariate regression analyses (300 [12.9%] Medicaid, 1022 [43.9%] Medicare, 1006 [43.2%] private). Compared to privately insured patients, Medicaid and Medicare patients had 71% ( Conclusion: Our propensity-score-matched cohort study found that, compared to privately insured patients, patients with government-sponsored insurance were at an increased risk for developing both major or minor complications perioperatively and at 90-days post-discharge for revision TJA. This suggests that insurance payer type is an independent risk factor for poor outcomes following revision TJA.
