Epidemiology of hip fractures in Thailand.
Article in Osteoporosis international : a journal established as result of cooperation between the European Foundation for Osteoporosis and the National Osteoporosis Foundation of the USA, 2024.

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
This retrospective study examining hip fracture incidence, hip fracture trends, and the annual hospitalization costs for hip fractures in a population aged 50 years and older within the Universal Health Coverage System revealed that the incidence of hip fractures and the annual hospitalization costs for hip fractures increased significantly from 2013 to 2022. PURPOSE: To examine the annual incidence of hip fractures over 10 years (2013-2022), hip fracture trends, and the annual hospitalization costs for hip fractures in a population aged 50 years and older within the Universal Health Coverage System.
methodsA retrospective study was conducted. Hip fracture hospitalizations were identified using ICD-10. Data on the number of hip fracture hospitalizations, population aged ≥ 50 years, and hospitalization costs were obtained. The primary outcome was the annual incidence of hip fractures. The secondary outcomes were hip fracture incidence by 5-year age group, the annual hospitalization costs for hip fractures, and the number of hip fractures in 6 regions of Thailand.
resultsThe hip fracture incidence increased annually from 2013-2019 and then plateaued from 2019-2022, with the crude incidence (per 100,000 population) increasing from 112.7 in 2013 to 146.7 in 2019 and 146.9 in 2022. The age-standardized incidence (per 100,000 population) increased from 116.3 in 2013 to 145.1 in 2019 and remained at 140.7 in 2022. Increases in the crude incidence were observed in both sexes (34% in females and 21% in males; p < 0.05). The annual hospitalization costs for hip fractures increased 2.5-fold, from 17.3 million USD in 2013 to 42.8 million USD in 2022 (p < 0.001). The number of hip fractures increased in all six regions of Thailand across the 10-year study period.
conclusionOsteoporotic hip fractures are a significant health concern in Thailand. The incidence and the annual hospitalization costs for hip fractures increased significantly from 2013 to 2022.
