The Perioperative Management of Antiplatelet and Anticoagulant Drugs in Hip Fractures: Do the Surgery as Early as Possible.
Review 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 10 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
Hip fractures are among the most common fractures operated by orthopedic surgeons. Many elderly patients, who account for a significant percentage of hip fractures, suffer from medical conditions requiring antiplatelet and anticoagulant administration. Meanwhile, considerable evidence recommends early surgery within 48b hours of admission. We aim to review the existing evidence regarding the perioperative management of antiplatelet and anticoagulant drugs in hip fractures. It was concluded that surgery for hip fractures in patients with antiplatelet drug consumption should not be delayed unless a clear contraindication exists. Active reversal strategies are indicated for patients with hip fractures and warfarin therapy. However, evidence for the safety of these agents in pregnancy, breastfeeding state, and adolescence has not yet been established. Little data exists about perioperative management of direct-acting oral anticoagulants in hip fractures. Early surgery after 12-24 hours of drug cessation has been suggested in studies; however, it should be employed cautiously. Despite extensive research, the importance of the issue necessitates additional higher-quality studies.
