Risk Factors and Outcomes of Extended Length of Stay in Older Adults with Intertrochanteric Fracture Surgery: A Retrospective Cohort Study of 2132 Patients.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 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
We aimed to identify the risk factors associated with an extended length of hospital stay (eLOS) in older hip-fracture patients and to explore the relationships between eLOS and mortality and functional outcomes. In this retrospective analysis of surgically treated intertrochanteric fracture (IF) patients, all variables were obtained and compared between the eLOS group and the normal LOS group. All participants were followed-up for a minimum of two years and the relation between the eLOS and all-cause mortality and functional outcomes were compared. After adjustment for potential confounders, we identified that patients with high modified Elixhauser's Comorbidity Measure (mECM) had the highest likelihood of eLOS, followed by obesity, admission in winter, living in urban, pulmonary complications, admission in autumn, and time from injury to surgery. In addition, our results showed no significant difference in the mortality and functional outcomes between the two groups during follow-up. By identifying these risk factors in the Chinese geriatric population, it may be possible to risk-stratify IF patients and subsequently streamline inpatient resource utilization. However, the differences between health care systems must be taken into consideration. Future studies are needed to preemptively target the modifiable risk factors to demonstrate benefits in diminishing eLOS.
