Proximal Femoral Fracture Surgery in Older Bedouin Adults in Southern Israel: One-Year Mortality and Predictors.
Article in Journal of racial and ethnic health disparities, 2026. 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
objectiveProximal femoral neck fractures are known to increase mortality rates among the older population. The aim of this study was to investigate the one-year postoperative mortality rates following proximal femoral neck fracture repair surgery in the underserved Bedouin population of the Negev, Israel.
methodsA retrospective observational cohort study examining 1-year postoperative mortality following proximal femoral neck fracture surgery in the Bedouin population aged 65 and older at Soroka University Medical Center from 2013 to 2020. The univariate analyses utilized Student's t-test for continuous variables and the chi-square test for categorical variables. Significant variables identified in the univariate analysis were incorporated into a multivariate logistic regression model to identify independent predictors of mortality. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER: 0236-20-SOR; date of registration: May 30, 2021; retrospectively registered.
resultsThe one-year postoperative mortality rate was 23.4%. Univariate analysis revealed that non-survivors were significantly older, predominantly male, had lower body mass indices, reduced lymphocyte counts, and higher comorbidity scores. Multivariate analysis revealed that only age and male sex were independent predictors of mortality, with each additional year of age increasing the risk by 8% (OR = 0.92, p = 0.042), and men having a 3.9-fold greater risk compared to women (OR = 3.9, p = 0.032).
conclusionsIn the Bedouin population of the Negev, Southern Israel, age and male sex are the main determinants of 1-year mortality following proximal femoral neck fracture surgery, with rates comparable to those observed in other populations.
