MFI-11 Predicts Post-Operative Serious Complications in Patients Undergoing Surgery for Odontoid Fractures.
Article in Global spine journal, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 1 paper.
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
STUDY
designRetrospective Cohort.
objectivesThe objective of this study was to analyze postoperative complications in different mFI-11 groups after surgery for odontoid fractures in a geriatric population.
methodsA single center retrospective review of odontoid fractures surgery (between 2013 and 2022) in patients aged 65 years and older was conducted. The primary outcome was the occurrence of a major complication (Calvien-Dindo ≥4) within 30 days post-surgery. The secondary outcome was the occurrence of a major complication within 3 months after surgery, and death within 1-month post-surgery. Survival curve, multi-variate analysis was performed and adjusted receiver operating characteristic curves were generated.
resultsThere were 92 patients included in this study, with a mean age of 80.5 years. Serious complication occurred for 16 patients (17%) during hospitalization. Multivariate analysis demonstrated an mFI 11 >.27 was strongly and independently associated with serious complications within 1-month post-surgery (OR = 16.7, 95% CI = 4.50-83), as well as serious complications within 3 months post-surgery (OR = 11.8, 95% CI = 3.48-49.1) and death within 1 month post-surgery (OR = 11.7; 95% CI = 3.02-60.4). The Receiver Operator Characteristics (ROC) curves for the three models all have an Area Under the Curve (AUC) value greater than 0.7.
conclusionsThe mFI-11 is a straightforward and validated tool that can be used during the preoperative period to identify the patient's level of frailty and assess their risk of postoperative complications. Patients with mFI-11 ≥.27 are at greater risk of serious complications within 1 and 3 months' post-surgery and death within 1 month post-surgery.
