Association between duration of anticoagulant thromboprophylaxis and revision rate in primary total hip arthroplasty: a Danish and Norwegian nationwide cohort study.

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 and purposeThere are concerns that bleeding following primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) contributes to prolonged wound drainage and prosthetic joint infection (PJI). We examined whether short (1-5 days), medium (6-14 days), and extended (≥ 15 days) duration of thromboprophylaxis is associated with the 5-year revision rate after THA due to osteoarthritis. PATIENTS AND
methodsWe performed a cohort study based on data from hip arthroplasty and administrative registries in Denmark and Norway (2008-2014). The outcome was revision surgery due to PJI, aseptic loosening or any cause, and patient mortality. Adjusted cause-specific hazard ratios (HRs) were analyzed with Cox regression analyses.
resultsAmong 50,482 THA patients, 8,333 received short, 17,009 received medium, and 25,140 received extended thromboprophylaxis. The HRs for revision due to PJI within 5 years were 1.0 (95%CI 0.7-1.3) and 1.1 (CI 0.9-1.3) for short and extended vs. medium treatment, whereas HR for extended vs. medium prophylaxis was 1.5 (CI 1.2-2.0) within 3 months. The HRs for revision due to aseptic loosening within 5 years were 1.0 (CI 0.7-1.4) and 1.1 (CI 0.9-1.4) for short and extended vs. medium treatment. The HRs for any revision within 5 years were 0.9 (CI 0.8-1.1) and 0.9 (CI 0.8-1.0) for short and extended vs. medium treatment. Extended vs. medium prophylaxis was associated with a decreased 0-3 month mortality. The absolute differences at 5 years were ≤ 1%.
conclusionOur data suggests no association between duration of anticoagulant thromboprophylaxis and revision rate within 5 years of primary THA. The extended thromboprophylaxis might be associated with early increased revision rate due to PJI but also with lower mortality; however, the clinical relevance of this finding requires further research.
