Mortality and Risk Factors After Hip Fracture in Patients Aged 50 Years and Older: A Minimum 10-Year Follow-up Using Jeju Island Cohort Study.
Article in Journal of Korean medical science, 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
backgroundHip fractures are associated with a high mortality rate; however, long-term follow-up studies are limited. This study aimed to evaluate mortality and its associated risk factors in patients with hip fractures over a minimum follow-up period of 10 years within a prospective cohort.
methodsData were obtained from a cohort of hip fractures on Jeju Island (2002-2011). Mortality was assessed in patients with at least 10 years of follow-up. Among 1,952 eligible patients, survival outcome was confirmed for 1,840 patients with 112 lost to follow-up. Mortality rates were estimated using Kaplan-Meier analysis. Risk factors were examined with log-rank tests and Cox proportional hazards regression, including sex, age, fracture type, subsequent fracture, surgical intervention and comorbidity.
resultsAmong 1,840 patients, 1,545 deaths and 295 survivors were identified. Cumulative mortality was 17.1% at 1 year, 32.9% at 3 years, 46.7% at 5 years, and 71.4% at 10 years. Kaplan-Meier analysis showed significant differences by age (
conclusionHip fracture patients exhibit steadily increasing mortality, exceeding 70% at 10 years. Advanced age, male sex, lack of surgical treatment and high comorbidity burden are independent risk factors. Strategies targeted at these high-risk groups are essential to improve long-term survival.
