Relationship between mortality and HALP score in femoral neck fractures treated with hemiarthroplasty.
Article in Joint diseases and related surgery, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
objectivesThis study aims to investigate the predictive value of the Hemoglobin, Albumin, Lymphocyte, and Platelet (HALP) score for six-month mortality in patients undergoing hemiarthroplasty for femoral neck fractures (FNFs). PATIENTS AND
methodsBetween March 2019 and March 2022, a total of 60 patients (32 males, 28 females; mean age: 83.2±6.3 years; range, 67 to 95 years) who underwent hemiarthroplasty for FNFs were retrospectively analyzed. Complete blood count and albumin levels were analyzed in venous blood samples at the time of hospital admission. The neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR), monocyte/lymphocyte ratio (MLR), platelet/lymphocyte ratio (PLR), prognostic nutritional index (PNI), systemic immune-inflammation index (SII), and HALP scores were calculated. The six-month mortality rates of the patients were recorded.
resultsAt six-month follow-up, 22 (36.6%) patients died and 38 (63.4%) survived. In logistic regression analysis, only HALP score was found to be associated with six-month mortality independently of other parameters (p=0.001 odds ratio [OR]=1.09, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.06-1.13). The six-month survival increased 1.09-fold for each unit increase in HALP score. In the receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curve analysis, the HALP score showed 71.1% sensitivity and 72.7% specificity using a cut-off value of 19.95 (area under the curve [AUC]: 0.804, 95% CI: 0.687-0.921).
conclusionOur study results show that low HALP score is associated with six-month mortality in this patient group. Based on these findings, we suggest that the clinical use of the HALP score as a prognostic marker in hip fracture patients.
