Associated Factors of Functional Ability in Older Persons Undergoing Hip Surgery Immediately Post-Hospital Discharge: A Prospective Study.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
backgroundhip fractures commonly have an impact on older adults' health. Surgical treatment aims to reduce pain and promote functional ability. However, developing adverse health outcomes or complications post-hip surgery may impede older patients' recovery to return to functional ability as pre-fracture. We aimed to examine the association of personal factors and adverse health outcomes during hospitalization and post-hospital discharge on the functional ability of older people undergoing hip surgery.
methodsa total of 120 older people with hip fractures who were scheduled for surgery at three tertiary hospitals and met the inclusion criteria were recruited for this study. Data were obtained at admission, before discharge, and during the two-week postoperative follow-up using the Demographic, Hip Dysfunction and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score, Joint Replacement, the Confusion Assessment Method (CAM) Thai version, and Health Outcome Questionnaires. Descriptive statistics and multiple logistic regression analyses were performed to analyze the data.
resultsmost participants were female, with a mean age of 78.10 years (range = 60-93; SD = 8.37). The most common adverse health outcome during hospitalization was urinary tract infection, followed by delirium, pneumonia, deep vein thrombosis, and surgical site infection. At two weeks immediately post-hospital discharge, 16 participants experienced unpleasant events, including delirium, urinary tract infection, surgical site infection, and pneumonia. The significant predictors of poor functional ability at two weeks immediately post-hospital discharge were old age (OR = 1.114,
