Smoking Is Markedly Associated With 30-Day Readmission and Revision Surgery After Surgical Treatment of Clavicle Fracture.

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
backgroundA recent database study found that 15.2% of clavicle fractures underwent surgical treatment. Recent evidence accentuates the role of smoking in predicting nonunion. The purpose of this study was to further elucidate the effect of smoking on the 30-day postoperative outcomes after surgical treatment of clavicle fractures.
methodsThe authors queried the American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program database for all patients who underwent open reduction and internal fixation of clavicle fracture between 2015 and 2020. Multivariate logistic regression, adjusted for notable patient demographics and comorbidities, was used to identify associations between current smoking status and postoperative complications.
resultsIn total, 6,132 patients were included in this study of whom 1,510 (24.6%) were current smokers and 4,622 (75.4%) were nonsmokers. Multivariate analysis found current smoking status to be significantly associated with higher rates of deep incisional surgical-site infection (OR, 7.87; 95% CI, 1.51 to 41.09; P = 0.014), revision surgery (OR, 2.74; 95% CI, 1.67 to 4.49; P < 0.001), and readmission (OR, 3.29; 95% CI, 1.84 to 5.89; P < 0.001).
conclusionCurrent smoking status is markedly associated with higher rates of deep incisional surgical-site infection, revision surgery, and readmission within 30 days after open reduction and internal fixation of clavicle fracture.
