Rehabilitation after Hip Fracture Surgery: A Survey on Italian Physiotherapists' Knowledge and Adherence to Evidence-Based Practice.
Article in Healthcare (Basel, Switzerland), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
The average life expectancy of the Italian population has increased over the last decades, with a consequent increase in the demand for healthcare. Rehabilitation after hip fracture surgery is essential for autonomy, recovery, and reintegration into the social context. The aim of this study was to determine the level of knowledge and adherence to the recent treatment recommendations of the Italian physiotherapists. A web-based survey, composed of 21 items, was conducted and the frequencies and percentages of the responses were analyzed to evaluate if there was an integration and adherence to the recommendations of greater than 70%, with respect to the desired response. A total of 392 responses were collected and analyzed. Recommendations regarding the multidisciplinary approach, early mobilization, and progressive muscle strength training, achieved the desired value in the inpatient setting. Intensive rehabilitation and full weight bearing did not reach the threshold values. The results of this survey show a partial integration of the recommendations for rehabilitation after hip fracture surgery by Italian physiotherapists. Adherence seems to be better in the inpatient setting and with physiotherapists with higher levels of education.
