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
Background: The increasing number of hip arthroplasties (HA) worldwide, including hemi- and total hip arthroplasties, has led to a rise in periprosthetic femoral fractures (PPFF). These fractures are technically complex, linked to high morbidity and mortality, and impose a burden on healthcare systems. However, clinical guidelines for managing PPFF are lacking, and data on factors affecting postoperative outcomes remain limited. This study aimed to identify risk factors for one-year mortality in surgically treated PPFF patients. Methods: A retrospective single-center cohort study was conducted on patients with surgically treated PPFF. Data on patient-, implant-, fracture-, surgical- and perioperative characteristics were collected. Univariate and multivariable logistic regression analyses were used to identify independent predictors of one-year mortality. Results: Among 157 patients (median age was 83 years, 59.2 % ASA III), the one-year overall mortality rate was 16.6 %. Multivariable analyses suggested that residency in a nursing home [OR 4.1 (95 %CI 1.20-14.25) p = 0.025], use of a walking aid [OR 3.6 (95 %CI 1.07-12.36) p = 0.039], initial uncemented stem fixation [OR 4.08 (95 %CI 1.25-13.35) p = 0.020], preoperative urinary bladder catheter (UBC) [OR 4.5 (95 %CI 1.33-15.25) p = 0.016] and lower Body Mass Index (BMI) (Kg/m Conclusion: PPFF patients are frail and highly comorbid. Risk factors such as low BMI, nursing home residency, walking aid use, uncemented stem fixation, and preoperative UBC highlight the need for targeted strategies to improve outcomes.
