Factors delaying mobilization after hip and knee arthroplasty.

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
Objective: Arthroplasty patients undergo pre-operative assessment and medical optimization before surgery with the objective to mobilize and discharge home as soon as deemed fit to reduce hospital stay. This study was aimed to investigate factors delaying mobilization after hip and knee arthroplasty in our hospital. Methods: This observational study was conducted in our hospital between August 2021 and October 2021. We included all elective orthopedic patients who were admitted for hip and knee arthroplasty during this period. Patients admitted for revision arthroplasty were excluded from the study. We collected data prospectively on a pro forma including patient demographics and different other variables. All patients were reviewed on the first post-operative day by one of the authors and pro formas were completed. We used SPSS to analyze data. Results: Sixty patients were included; 32 females and 28 males with a mean age of 69.62 years. Primary knee arthroplasty was done in 30 patients while 30 underwent primary hip arthroplasty. Most of the patients ( Conclusion: Orthostatic intolerance and post-operative pain were independent factors delaying mobilization after hip and knee arthroplasty thereby increasing the length of stay in these patients.
