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

introductionObesity remains a global epidemic. The effect of obesity on the risk of complications after acetabular fracture is unknown. Here, we evaluate the effect of BMI on early complications and mortality after acetabular fracture. We hypothesize that the risk of inpatient complications and mortality will be greater in patients with high BMI when compared to those with normal BMI.

methodsAdult patients with acetabular fracture were identified via the Trauma Quality Improvement Program data from 2015 to 2019. The primary outcome was overall complication rate with reference to normal-weight patients (BMI = 25-30 kg/m

resultsA total of 99,721 patients with acetabular fracture were identified. Class I obesity (BMI = 30-35 kg/m

conclusionObesity is associated greater risk of adverse events and death following acetabular fracture. Obesity severity classification scales with these risks.
