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

backgroundAlthough total hip arthroplasty (THA) and total knee arthroplasty (TKA) offer significant cost savings to our health care system, the degree to which the burden of postoperative care has been transferred onto the informal caregiver is often overlooked. We performed a scoping review to identify the characteristics and factors that contribute to the burden of care experienced after outpatient THA and TKA.

methodsWe systematically searched electronic literature databases according to scoping review guidelines from inception to June 2021 for articles reporting the experiences of informal caregivers providing care for patients having undergone outpatient THA or TKA. Our review included English-language studies that sought to elucidate the impact on caregivers in the acute postoperative period (up to 6 wk after surgery).

resultsOur search yielded 1423 unique articles, which were screened for inclusion. We removed 310 duplicate records and excluded another 1099 articles because they did not meet the inclusion criteria for full-text screening with relevancy. We thus assessed 14 articles for full-text review, and none were found to meet our inclusion criteria.

conclusionWe found no published data pertaining to the burden borne by informal caregivers who provide perioperative care to patients who have undergone ambulatory THA or TKA. Further research is needed to identify, quantify and determine the modifiability of the various characteristics and factors that contribute to caregiver burden in the outpatient setting.
