1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundPostoperative venous thrombosis (PVT) is a common complication following lower limb fracture surgery, yet age-specific risk factors remain unclear. This study aimed to identify distinct predictors and develop tailored prediction models for young/middle-aged and elderly patients. PATIENTS AND

methodsThis multicentre retrospective cohort study analysed factors influencing of PVT in 483 patients undergoing lower limb fracture surgery at two tertiary hospitals between 1 January 2020 and 31 December 2022. Participants were divided into young/middle-aged (18-59 years,

resultsThe overall PVT incidence was 15.24% and 23.36% (

conclusionsFracture patients of different age groups require distinct risk management and perioperative treatments. This study developed age-specific PVT prediction models, highlighting the different risk profiles between young/middle-aged and elderly patients. For young/middle-aged patients, preoperative coagulation status should be optimized, postoperative anticoagulant overuse limited and fluid volume recovery enhanced. For elderly patients, intraoperative fluid input should be strictly restricted, and postoperative protein and electrolyte levels monitored.
