Day-Case Total Hip Replacement for a Neck of Femur Fracture.
Article in Cureus, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Total hip replacements are now commonly used in elective settings for patients in the NHS. With the rising costs associated with hospital admissions, there is an opportunity to apply day-case arthroplasty principles to total hip replacements in trauma patients with a neck of femur fracture. This report outlines a case of a patient in her sixties who presented with a fall and an intracapsular neck of femur fracture. She was admitted as an orthopaedic patient and treated with an emergency total hip replacement, given her good functional baseline and limited co-morbidities. Her health was optimised prior to surgery, and she successfully passed the necessary checks following surgery and was discharged from the hospital within 24 hours. By selecting the correct patients, optimising their health prior to surgery and following Getting It Right First Time (GIRFT) guidelines, it is possible to reduce the risk of complications, reduce the length of hospital stay and improve patient outcomes by favouring day-case total hip replacements in patients with neck of femur fractures.
