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
backgroundVenous thromboembolism (VTE) is one of the most common complications of hip fracture surgeries, and it is unclear whether delayed surgery affects the incidence of VTE. This study aimed to examine the association between delayed surgery and VTE incidence by statistically adjusting for factors that may influence VTE incidence.
methodsWe included 862 patients ≥ 65 years with hip fractures who underwent surgery between October 2010 and December 2020. We examined the effect of surgical delay 48 h after injury on postoperative VTE. Patients with and without VTE were assigned to groups V and NV, respectively. Those with and without proximal deep venous thrombosis (DVT) were assigned to PD and NPD groups, respectively. Univariate analysis was performed to identify factors that might influence DVT development. Risk factors for developing VTE and proximal DVT were analyzed using logistic regression analysis to determine whether delayed surgery was a risk factor.
resultsVTE was observed in 436 patients (40%) and proximal DVT in 48 patients (5.6%). Univariate analysis showed significant differences in the time from trauma to surgery between the V and NV groups and between the PD and NPD groups. In multivariate analysis, surgery 48 h later was also a risk factor for developing VTE and proximal DVT.
conclusionA delay in surgery beyond 48 h after a hip fracture injury is a risk factor for developing VTE and proximal DVT.
