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
Introduction: In-hospital mortality following hip fracture surgery remains a significant outcome in elderly patients, yet perioperative determinants - particularly those modifiable during hospitalization - are incompletely characterized. Whether the prognostic impact of acute kidney injury (AKI) on in-hospital mortality differs according to fracture type has not been previously examined. Materials and Methods: This retrospective cohort study included 342 patients aged ≥65 years who underwent surgical treatment for hip fracture at a tertiary referral center between January 2018 and January 2022. The primary outcome was in-hospital mortality. Independent predictors were identified using multivariable logistic regression. Model performance was assessed by ROC analysis, Hosmer-Lemeshow calibration testing, and bootstrap internal validation with 1000 iterations. A simple additive risk score was derived from the final model. Interaction analysis evaluated whether fracture type modified the association between AKI and mortality. Results: In-hospital mortality occurred in 29 of 342 patients (8.5%). Independent predictors were postoperative AKI (OR 5.46, 95% CI 2.20-13.51), lower preoperative serum albumin (OR per 1 g/dL increase 0.38, 95% CI 0.18-0.78), and lower admission oxygen saturation (OR per 1% increase 0.86, 95% CI 0.77-0.95). The model demonstrated acceptable discrimination (AUC = 0.766, 95% CI 0.655-0.877). A three-variable additive risk score stratified mortality from 3.4% (score 0) to 39.1% (score 2-3). Interaction analysis revealed that fracture type significantly modified the prognostic impact of AKI (interaction p = 0.016), with a substantially stronger effect in extracapsular fractures (OR 14.3, 95% CI 4.0-50.0) than intracapsular fractures (OR 1.32, 95% CI 0.30-5.88). Conclusions: Postoperative AKI, hypoalbuminemia, and reduced admission oxygen saturation independently predict in-hospital mortality after hip fracture surgery. The mortality risk conferred by AKI is substantially greater in extracapsular fractures, highlighting the need for fracture-type-specific perioperative vigilance and early renal protection strategies.
