Health behaviours in patients with lower limb deep vein thrombosis following hip or knee arthroplasty: latent profile analysis and influencing factors based on a cross-sectional study in Urumqi, China.
Article in BMJ open, 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
objectiveThis study aims to categorise health behaviours in patients with lower limb deep vein thrombosis and explore the factors that influence these behaviours.
designA cross-sectional study.
settingThis study was conducted in four tertiary general hospitals in Urumqi, China.
participantsThis study included a total of 544 participants. PRIMARY AND SECONDARY OUTCOME MEASURES: Self-rated abilities for health practices, health behaviour motivation, social support and health behaviour were the primary outcome measures.
resultsModel 3 demonstrated superior fit across indices, supported by an Entropy value of 0.806 and a significant bootstrap likelihood ratio test (p<0.001). The generalised linear mixed model identified self-rated abilities for health practices (p<0.05), health behaviour motivation and social support (both p<0.001) as factors associated with health behaviour latent profile subgroups among patients with lower limb deep vein thrombosis following hip or knee arthroplasty.
conclusionThree latent health behaviour subgroups, namely low, moderate and good, were identified among patients with lower limb deep vein thrombosis following hip or knee arthroplasty. Self-rated abilities for health practices, health behaviour motivation and social support were associated with these subgroups. These findings may provide preliminary insights for developing targeted interventions to support health behaviour improvement in this patient population.
