Influence of frailty on postoperative outcomes following primary and revision total hip arthroplasty.
Article in World journal of orthopedics, 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 arthroplasty (THA) effectively treats advanced hip disorders, yet outcomes vary among patients. Frailty has become a crucial factor influencing these results. Several studies explored multiple preoperative factors affecting THA outcomes, highlighting the significance of age, Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index, Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale, and central sensitization index scores in predicting post-operative recovery, emphasizing comprehensive preoperative assessments. Subsequent research has shown that frailty, measured by tools like the hospital frailty risk score and frailty deficit index, is significantly associated with adverse outcomes such as higher 30-day readmission rates, longer hospital stays, increased costs, and elevated mortality and complication risks in both primary and revision THA. Additionally, frailty related to short-term adverse events but stressed the need for standardized frailty measurement. Currently, there is no unified standard for assessing frailty before THA, which hinders cross-study comparison and evidence-based guideline development. Future research should focus on establishing a universal frailty assessment standard considering physical function, comorbidities, cognitive and psychological status. Prospective studies are also needed to clarify the causal relationship between frailty and long-term THA outcomes and identify modifiable factors for preoperative interventions. Overall, understanding the impact of frailty on THA outcomes is essential for improving patient care and resource utilization, especially in an aging population with a rising prevalence of hip disorders.
