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.

Abstract

Although reduced early physical function after total hip- and knee arthroplasty (THA/TKA) is well-described, the underlying reasons have not been clarified with detailed studies on pathophysiological mechanisms related to recovery, thereby prohibiting advances in rehabilitation. Thus, we aimed to describe early post-THA/TKA physical activity measured by actigraphy and potential underlying pathophysiological mechanisms related to recovery in a well-defined cohort of THA and TKA patients. Daytime-activity was measured from 2 days before until 13 (THA) or 20 (TKA) days after surgery. The primary outcome was individualized recovery in activity, with secondary analyses of activity-intensities and association to the perioperative factors: sex, age, BMI, hemoglobin (hgb), C-reactive protein and postoperative pain. Eighty-one THA/TKA-patients were examined. A large inter-individual variation in early physical activity was found. On a group level, activity was significantly reduced compared to preoperatively the first 2 (THA) or 3 (TKA) weeks after surgery (mean-difference - 64 counts × 10
