1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

purpose of the studyHip fractures in the elderly are commonly complicated by deep venous thrombosis (DVT), particularly in the preoperative phase. This retrospective study aimed to determine the preoperative incidence of DVT and identify its risk factors in older patients with hip fractures. MATERIAL AND

methodsThis single-center retrospective study enrolled 278 patients (aged ≥ 60 years) with unilateral hip fracture, who underwent color Doppler ultrasonography of the lower extremity veins on the day of surgery at the Second People's Hospital Affiliated to Fujian University of Traditional Chinese Medicine between 1st January 2015 and 31st December 2020. Demographic data, clinical characteristics, and surgical history were analyzed. Multivariate logistic regression was used to identify independent risk factors for preoperative DVT.

resultsThe incidence of DVT was 15.5%, including peripheral venous thrombosis at 18.6% and central venous thrombosis at 5.4%. Univariate analysis showed no significant differences in gender, age, and type of fracture. However, delayed admission, longer time from admission to surgery, and atrial fibrillation were significant risk factors. Multivariate logistic regression analysis identified delayed admission (OR = 2.597, 95% CI 1.275-5.290, P = .009), prolonged time from admission to surgery (OR = 1.166, 95% CI 1.034-1.314, P = .012), and atrial fibrillation (OR = 2.848, 95% CI 1.115-7.275, P = .029) as significant independent risk factors for DVT.

conclusionsEarly admission and prompt surgery of elderly patients with hip fractures are critical to prevent the occurrence of DVT. Atrial fibrillation remains a significant risk factor that requires close attention. Prospective studies are warranted to validate these findings and optimize prophylactic strategies.
