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

objectivesTo compare minimal trauma hip fractures (MTHF) between older Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians.

methodsEpidemiological study of retrospective New South Wales hospitalisation data (2005-2016) for MTHF among Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians over 40 years of age.

resultsEstimated age-standardised rates of MTHF were lower among Indigenous Australians than non-Indigenous Australians (142.2 vs. 161.7 per 100,000) with a direct standardised rate ratio of 0.887 (95%CI 0.78-0.99, p = 0.031). However, for both male and female Indigenous Australians, MTHF occur at a younger age than in non-Indigenous Australians (age 40-74: 52% vs. 19%, p < 0.001). Proportions of MTHF are higher among women and were almost double among rural Indigenous Australians compared with rural non-Indigenous Australians (59% vs. 31%, p < 0.001).

conclusionsNew South Wales Hospitalisation data showed that estimated age-standardised rates of MTHF appear lower among Indigenous Australians than in non-Indigenous Australians but also occur at a younger age for Indigenous people. MTHF are more common among rural Indigenous Australians and women.
