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

Background: Hip fractures occurring in older patients often result in significant anemia, even hemodynamic disorders and hypoperfusion. The present study aims to investigate the general characteristics of hypotension following hip fracture surgery (HFHFS) and its effect on clinical outcomes. Methods: A total of 168 patients aged ≥80 years who underwent hip fracture surgery at a tertiary orthopaedic hospital from January 1, 2020 to August 31, 2020 were enrolled and followed up for one year. Patients were divided into HFHFS and non-HFHFS cohorts according to blood pressure within 24 h after surgery. General difference comparison, univariate and multivariate regression, and survival analysis were applied to investigate the association between HSHSF and in-hospital and one-year clinical outcomes. Results: The incidence of HFHFS was 23.8% (40/168), with a median time to onset of 8.0 (5.0-12.0) hours after surgery. The HFHFS group had more chronic heart disease before injury and experienced more positive fluid balance on the day of surgery (P values were 0.032 and 0.028, respectively). After adjustment for potential confounders, HFHFS was associated with prolonged length of hospital stay (B 2.66, 95% CI 0.22, 5.10; P = 0.033), postoperative cardiac dysfunction (OR 2.92, 95% CI 1.05, 8.11; P = 0.039), and postoperative brain dysfunction (OR 3.51, 95% CI 1.50, 8.23; P = 0.004). HFHFS had no effect on one-year modified Rankin Scale (mRS) (B 0.28, 95% CI -0.28, 0.84; P = 0.322) and one-year mortality (HR 1.07, 95% CI 0.29, 3.96; P = 0.917). Conclusion: Many older patients develop hypotension several hours after hip fracture surgery, which may be related with preexisting decline in cardiac reserve in addition to postoperative hidden blood loss. Patients who experienced HFHFS were more likely to have postoperative cardiac and brain dysfunction and longer hospital stay. However, HFHFS had no significant effect on mRS and mortality at one year.
