Influence of Patient Gender on In-Hospital Mortality: A Population-Based Cross-Sectional Study.
Article in Nursing open, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
aimTo analyse the association between gender and in-hospital mortality odds ratios among patients in the Basque Country.
designCross-sectional study.
methodsAdmission data pertaining to the period between 1 January 2016 and 31 December 2018 were gathered for all registered acute care hospitals (both public and private) in the Basque Country. Odds ratios were calculated through binomial logistic regressions to determine the association between gender and mortality in each diagnostic category of the ICD-10.
resultsWomen had a higher in-hospital mortality odds ratio for diseases of the circulatory system (OR 1.07 [1.01-1.14], p < 0.05). In contrast, men were at greater risk of in-hospital death from neoplasms (OR 0.86 [0.83-0.94], p < 0.05), diseases of the nervous system (OR 0.83 [0.70-0.97], p < 0.05), diseases of the genitourinary system (OR 0.83 [0.71-0.96], p < 0.05), endocrine diseases (OR 0.67 [0.54-0.84], p < 0.05), injury, poisoning and other consequences of external causes (OR 0.60 [0.54-0.67], p < 0.05) and diseases of the musculoskeletal system and connective tissue (OR 0.69 [0.50-0.93], p < 0.05). PATIENT OR PUBLIC CONTRIBUTION: No patient or public contributions.
