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

Objectives: As the incidence of proximal femoral fractures (PFFs) continues to increase, optimizing patient-specific treatment strategies is essential for the efficient use of healthcare resources. The aim of this study was to examine longitudinal postoperative motor function recovery in patients with femoral neck fractures (FNF) and intertrochanteric fractures (ITFs) and to identify which factors, including fracture type and patient-related characteristics, predominantly influence recovery trajectories to inform individualized rehabilitation strategies. Methods: This retrospective study included patients who underwent bipolar hip arthroplasty for FNF (201 hips) or internal fixation for ITF (224 hips) and completed convalescent rehabilitation. Motor function was assessed using the motor Functional Independence Measure (mFIM) at admission to and discharge from the convalescent rehabilitation ward. Longitudinal mFIM score changes were analyzed using a linear mixed-effects model (LMM), with time, fracture type, cognitive function, pre-fracture mobility status, age, and other covariates as fixed effects. Results: In the LMM, only cognitive function showed a significant interaction with time (P Conclusions: Postoperative functional recovery trajectories after PFFs were significantly influenced by cognitive function. The use of LMM facilitated detailed assessment of longitudinal recovery patterns beyond single time-point evaluations. These findings highlight the importance of cognitively tailored rehabilitation strategies in optimizing functional recovery.
