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

Purpose: Carpometacarpal (CMC) arthroplasty is an effective surgical treatment for osteoarthritis of the CMC joint. Risk factors for readmission and reoperation have been studied for other joint arthroplasty procedures but have not yet been studied for CMC arthroplasty. The purpose of this study was to identify patient demographics and comorbidities associated with 30-day readmission and 30-day reoperation after CMC arthroplasty. Methods: The American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program database was queried for all records of patients who underwent CMC arthroplasty between 2015 and 2020. Variables collected in this study included patient demographics, comorbidities, surgical characteristics, and 30-day postsurgical complication data. Multivariate logistic regression was used to identify independent associations between patient characteristics and readmission and reoperation after CMC arthroplasty. Results: In total, 6,432 records were included in this study: 34 (0.5%) were readmitted within 30 days, and 27 (0.4%) underwent reoperation within 30 days. Compared with the non-readmission cohort, the readmission cohort was significantly associated with higher rates of age ≥ 75 years ( Conclusion: The clinically significant predictors for 30-day readmission and 30-reoperation after CMC arthroplasty were age ≥ 75 years, BMI ≥ 40 kg/m Type of study/level of evidence: Prognostic III.
