Return to Daily Activities, Work, and Sports at 3 Months After Total Hip Arthroplasty.
Article in JB & JS open access. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. 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
Background: It is largely unknown if and when patients return to daily activities after undergoing total hip arthroplasty (THA) and which factors might influence this return. This study aimed to assess the percentages of patients who had been able to return to daily activities, work, and sports at 3 months after THA. Furthermore, the time to return and factors influencing the return (patient characteristics, surgical characteristics, and preoperative patient-reported outcomes) were assessed. Methods: A retrospective cohort study of patients who underwent THA was performed with use of prospectively collected data. At 3 months postoperatively, patients completed a questionnaire regarding their return to 16 different activities across the categories of daily activities, work, and sports. The percentage of patients who returned to an activity, the time to return, and factors influencing the return were analyzed with use of logistic regression models utilizing backward selection. Results: A total of 2,006 patients were studied. Most of the studied activities had been returned to by the majority of patients at 3 months after THA, with the percentage of patients who returned to an activity ranging from 28.8% to 97.9%. The mean or median time to return to an activity ranged from 1 to 56 days after THA. For 13 out of 16 activities, 1 or more of the studied factors influenced the return to the activity. R Conclusions: At 3 months after THA, 8 out of 10 patients had returned to daily activities, 7 out of 10 had returned to work, and 5 out of 10 had returned to sports. Factors that clearly influenced the return to daily activities, work, and sports could not be established. These findings might be useful in setting realistic expectations when counselling patients on their return to daily activities, work, and sports after THA. Level of Evidence: Therapeutic Level III.
