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

introductionHip osteoarthritis (OA) is a common joint pathology that significantly constrains functional capacity. Assessing the impact of hip OA on functionality is crucial for research and clinical practices. The study aimed to assess hip OA patients' functionality using the Timed Up and Go (TUG) test and to evaluate its diagnostic ability to differentiate between different grades of hip OA. We hypothesized that the severity of hip OA would impact the time required to complete the TUG test. MATERIALS AND

methodsPatients (Ν = 606) with unilateral, primary hip OA were selected from de-identified data and divided according to the radiographic Kellgren-Lawrence classification system (groups: Grade 2, Grade 3, and Grade 4). Groups' differences were assessed using the X

resultsStatistically significant differences were found among the three groups in age, gender distribution, TUG test, and occasional cane use (all p-values < 0.001). The correlation analysis shows a significant and strong positive correlation between TUG performance time and hip OA grades (r = .78, p < .001). The adjusted odds ratios (OR) were: Grade2-3=(2.29[95%CI: 1.89, 2.77], p < .001) and Grade3-4=(1.47[95%CI: 1.34, 1.62], p < .001). The TUG cut-off points from the ROC analysis were: Grades 2-3 = 10.25 s, Grades 2-4 = 11.35 s, and Grades 3-4 = 12.8 s.

conclusionsThis study provides evidence that the duration of the TUG test significantly increased with the severity of the disease. TUG can offer real-time data on the management and progression of hip OA. Future studies should explore the correlation between hip OA and the TUG test, as understanding the relationship can influence treatment and patient outcomes.
