Preoperative incidence and risk factors of deep vein thrombosis in Japanese patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty.

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
purposePreoperative deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk factor for postoperative venous thromboembolism (VTE), causing severe mortality. Early detection of preoperative DVT is essential to prevent postoperative VTE. However, little is known regarding preoperative DVT in patients undergoing major surgery. The present study aimed to determine the incidence and risk factors of preoperative DVT in patients admitted for total hip arthroplasty (THA).
methodsFrom August 2017 to September 2022, 243 patients admitted for THA at our institution were enrolled in this study. Patients medical records and preoperative laboratory data were retrospectively collected. According to the results of lower-limb ultrasonography, patients were divided into either the non-DVT (n = 136) or DVT (n = 43) group. The incidence of DVT and independent risk factors for preoperative DVT were investigated using univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses.
resultsThe mean age was 74.0 ± 8.4 years. Preoperative DVT was diagnosed in 43 of the 243 (17.7%) patients. The risk of DVT was significantly high (p < 0.05) in patients with advanced age, increased D-dimer levels, and malnutrition status, as assessed by the Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index (GNRI). Multivariate analysis showed that advanced age, increased D-dimer level, and malnutrition status assessed by the GNRI were independent risk factors for preoperative DVT.
conclusionA high incidence of preoperative DVT was observed in patients undergoing THA. Advanced age, increased D-dimer levels, and malnutrition assessed by the GNRI increased the risk of preoperative DVT. Screening high-risk subgroups for preoperative DVT is necessary to prevent postoperative VTE.
