Readmission, reoperation, and nonhome discharge rates in patients receiving surgical treatment for proximal humerus fractures.
Article in JSES international, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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: Proximal humerus fractures (PHFs) are generally surgically treated with open reduction internal fixation (ORIF), hemiarthroplasty (HA), or total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA). Diverse fracture patterns and a high prevalence in the elderly population make it difficult to establish objective guidelines for the decision to undergo surgical treatment. The purpose of this study was to investigate risk factors associated with readmission, reoperation, and nonhome discharge following ORIF, HA, and TSA for PHFs. Methods: Data on all patients who underwent ORIF, TSA, or HA for treatment of closed PHF between 2015 and 2017 were obtained by querying the American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement database. Rates of postoperative readmission, nonhome discharge, and reoperation within 30 days were collected. Multivariate logistic regression was employed to identify predictors of readmission, nonhome discharge, and reoperation. Results: A total of 2825 patients were included in this study: 1829 underwent ORIF, 707 underwent TSA, and 289 underwent HA. The significant predictors for readmission were having an American Society of Anesthesiologists class ≥ 3 (odds ratio [OR] 1.95, Conclusion: Significant risk factors for readmission, reoperation, and nonhome discharge within 30 days following surgical treatment for PHF were identified. Additionally, TSA was significantly associated with nonhome discharge compared with HA and ORIF.
