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

objectivesThis study aims to investigate the high-risk factors for osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) after internal fixation with multiple cannulated compression screws for adult femoral neck fractures and to construct a prediction model. PATIENTS AND

methodsBetween from January 2012 and December 2020, a total of 268 patients (138 males, 130 females; mean age: 53±10 years; range, 23 to 70 years) with ONFH who had complete follow-up data were included. Closed reduction in combination with open reduction were performed. All patients received internal fixation with multiple cannulated compression screws and were assigned to ONFH and non-ONFH groups. Logistic regression model was utilized to identify independent risk factors for postoperative ONFH, followed by constructing a nomogram prediction model. The predictive ability of the model was evaluated by receiver operating characteristic curve, Hosmer-Lemeshow test, and calibration curve.

resultsMultivariate analysis revealed that older age (odds ratio [OR]: 2.307, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.295-4.108], Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) ≥2 (OR: 2.214, 95% CI: 1.035-4.739), fracture displacement (OR: 2.426, 95% CI: 1.122-5.247), unsatisfactory reduction (OR: 2.629, 95% CI: 1.275-5.423), postoperative removal of internal fixation implant (OR: 2.200, 95% CI: 1.051-4.604) were independent risk factors for postoperative ONFH (p<0.05). The nomogram prediction model constructed based on these clinical characteristics showed high predictive value (AUC=0.807) and consistency (p>0.05).

conclusionAge, comorbidity index, fracture type, reduction quality and postoperative removal of internal fixation implant are of utmost importance for postoperative ONFH in patients with femoral neck fractures. The established nomogram prediction model can accurately predict the occurrence of postoperative ONFH.
