Effectiveness of a home-based physical exercise intervention in patients with hip fragility fractures: a randomized controlled trial.
Trial report in Scientific reports, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT04934358 (Effectiveness of a Follow-up Program Based on Motivational Interventions and Physical Exercise in Patients With Fragility Fracture), which is not on this 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.

Abstract
We aimed to test the effectiveness of an invidually tailored home-based exercise intervention compared with usual care for independence, functional capacity and quality of life in patients with hip fragility fractures. In this single-blinded randomized-controlled trial (NCT04934358), patients with surgically treated fragility hip fractures were randomized to receive a 3-month exercise intervention or usual care. The exercise group performed a predetermined number of steps per day with resting pauses and a number of sit-to-stand exercises at home. The outcomes collected at baseline, at the end of the program and at follow up (6-months) included: the Barthel Index (primary outcome), quality of life, cognition and depression levels, 6-minute walking test, and 5-time sit-to-stand test. A total of 35 patients were randomized: 16 to the exercise group and 19 to the control group (mean age 80 ± 10 years, men n = 9). At the end of the program, patients in the exercise group presented significantly greater improvement in all primary and secondary outcomes than those in the control group did (Barthel Index variations: 12 ± 4 vs. 7 ± 5; p = 0.046), although both groups exhibited significant improvements from baseline for almost all the outcomes. Compared with usual care, a simple, individually tailored home-based exercise program favored the recovery of independence, quality of life, and functional capacity after hip fragility fractures.
