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

The present study aimed to evaluate the yearly number of Colles' fractures in Italy from 2001 to 2016, based on official information found in hospitalization records. A secondary aim was to estimate the average length of hospitalization for patients with a Colles' fracture. A tertiary aim was to investigate the distribution of the procedures generally performed for Colles' fractures' treatment in Italy. An analysis of the National Hospital Discharge records (SDO) maintained at the Italian Ministry of Health, concerning the 15 years of our study (from 2001 to 2016) was performed. Data are anonymous and include the patient's age, sex, domicile, length of hospital stays (days), primary diagnoses and primary procedures. From 2001 to 2016, 120,932 procedures for Colles' fracture were performed in Italy, which represented an incidence of 14.8 procedures for every 100,000 adult Italian inhabitants. The main number of surgeries was found in the 65-69- and 70-74-year age groups. In the present study, we review the epidemiology of Colles' fractures in the Italian population, the burden of the disease on the national health care system (in terms of length of hospitalization) and the distribution of the main surgical procedures performed for the treatment of the disease.
