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
Objectives: This study examined the psychosocial correlates of postoperative kinesiophobia in elderly patients with femoral neck fractures, with a focus on the roles of psychological resilience and social support in mitigating movement-related fear during rehabilitation. Methods: A prospective observational study included 200 patients (≥65 years) undergoing femoral neck fracture surgery (January 2022-August 2024). Kinesiophobia was assessed using the Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia (TSK), with scores >36 defining the kinesiophobia group ( Results: The kinesiophobia incidence was 60% (mean TSK = 39.20 ± 4.10). Key risk factors included low education (OR = 1.122), multiple comorbidities (OR = 1.312), low SSRS (OR = 1.329), low CD-RISC (OR = 1.310), severe pain (OR = 1.324), and low FIM (OR = 1.204) (all Conclusion: Postoperative kinesiophobia is prevalent and strongly associated with psychosocial vulnerabilities. Interventions targeting resilience, social support, and pain management may improve rehabilitation outcomes in this high-risk population.
