Characteristics of Elderly Hip Fracture Patients in Jordan: A Multicenter Epidemiological Study.
Article in International journal of general medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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: Elderly hip fractures represent a global health care burden. Several reports expected a massive increase in the incidence of hip fractures by the next few decades. Knowing the epidemiology of hip fractures is crucial for planning health care policies. The purpose of this study is to provide a nationwide epidemiological overview of hip fractures in Jordan and to report the perioperative outcomes that may help to improve the delivered healthcare. . Methods: We conducted a retrospective study at 2 university hospitals and 2 major governmental hospitals in Jordan. We reviewed the records for all patients (age >55 years) who were diagnosed with hip fractures over a 3 years duration (2019-2021). We documented the patient's characteristics and the perioperative data (including preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative details including the 1-year mortality).. Results: The total number of included patients was 1268; more than half (53.7%) were females. The mean age is 75 years (SD 9.7). The most common fracture type was trochanteric (66.2%). 7% of patients had a prior contralateral hip fracture. The average time from admission to surgery was 2.96 days (SD 2.63). The surgery was done within 48 hours for 56.7% of patients. Approximately, one-third of all patients (34.5%) received a blood transfusion. The average length of hospital stay is 7.44 days (SD 5). The overall rate of postoperative thromboembolic events, readmission within 1 month, and revision for the same surgery are 2.4%, 10.7%, and 3% respectively. The 1-month, 6-month, and 12-month mortality rates are 4.5%, 9.1%, and 12.8% respectively. Conclusion: The annual incidence of elderly hip fractures in Jordan is approximately 96 per 100,000 individuals. The 1-year mortality rate of hip fractures in Jordan is 12.8%. Both findings are in the lower range of nearby Arab countries.
