Dementia is Associated with an Increased Risk of Hip Fractures: A Nationwide Analysis in Korea.
Article in Journal of clinical neurology (Seoul, Korea), 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 16 papers.
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
background and purposeDementia has been reported to be associated with an increased risk of hip fracture, but few case-control studies have been performed to actually confirm this. This study investigated the association between dementia and hip fracture by comparing the risk of hip fracture between subjects with and without dementia.
methodsWe examined a population-based matched cohort from the National Health Insurance Service-Senior Cohort data set that covers approximately half a million recipients of medical insurance in South Korea. Subjects with new clinically verified dementia during 2003-2007 were included, and five subjects without dementia were matched for age, sex, and index year to each subject with dementia as the controls. The risk of hip fracture for dementia was evaluated up to 2015 using Cox regression analysis.
resultsDuring the 12-year follow-up period, 284 subjects with dementia (10.66%) and 603 subjects without dementia (4.53%) experienced hip fractures. Dementia was independently associated with a higher risk of hip fracture [hazard ratio (HR)=2.840, 95% CI=2.449-3.293] and the adjusted HR for hip fracture in the subjects with dementia was highest within 2 years after the initial diagnosis (HR=2.862, 95% CI=2.053-3.990).
conclusionsThis study found that dementia could be an independent risk factor for hip fracture even at the early stage. This necessitates consideration of the future risk of falls and balance deficits in terms of physical activity after a diagnosis of dementia.
