Factors Associated With Life-Space Mobility After Total Hip Arthroplasty in Females With Osteoarthritis: A Single-Center Retrospective Cohort Study.

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: Life-space mobility is defined as the spatial area traversed by an individual in daily life, extending from bedroom to locations beyond the individual's hometown, considering distance, frequency, and required assistance. The Life-Space Assessment (LSA) is used to evaluate life-space mobility. It has been reported that the LSA score after total hip arthroplasty (THA) shows an improvement relative to the preoperative score in patients with hip osteoarthritis. Symptoms and walking function also improve after THA. However, the association between these improvements and an increase in the LSA score after THA remains unclear. The purpose of this study was to identify the factors associated with an increase in the LSA score after THA in females with hip osteoarthritis. Methods: This retrospective cohort study involved females planning to undergo primary and unilateral THA for hip osteoarthritis. The LSA score, subjective hip symptoms and function (assessed using the modified Harris hip score), and walking speed were assessed preoperatively and at 6 months postoperatively. Factors associated with the postoperative change in the LSA score were investigated using multiple regression analysis. Results: A total of 120 participants were included. Improvement in walking speed (β = 0.19, Conclusions: The recovery of maximal walking speed, preoperative life-space mobility, age, and contralateral hip osteoarthritis influenced postoperative expansion of life-space mobility. Improved walking speed may serve as a key factor contributing to the expansion of life-space mobility following THA.
