Life-space mobility is associated with frequency of hospitalization in adults with cystic fibrosis.
Article in The clinical respiratory journal, 2011. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
INTRODUCTION AND
objectivesThe Life-Space Assessment can be used to measure a patient's level of mobility. This study evaluated the relationship between life-space mobility and frequency of hospitalization in the previous year and other clinical markers of health among adults with cystic fibrosis (CF).
methodsThe Life-Space Assessment was administered to ambulatory adults with CF in clinic or by telephone. Life-space mobility was correlated with the most recent forced expiratory volume in one second as a percent of the predicted value (FEV(1) % predicted), body mass index (BMI) and number of hospitalizations in the previous year.
resultsForty-eight subjects completed the Life-Space Assessment. Subjects had a life-space score of 88 ± 26, FEV(1) % predicted of 66% ± 26% and BMI of 22.5 ± 3.3. There was a statistically significant negative linear correlation between the number of times a subject was hospitalized in the previous year and life-space mobility (P = 0.001, R(2) = 0.20). This association was independent of FEV(1) % predicted and BMI.
conclusionThe life-space mobility score is associated with frequency of hospitalization in adults with CF. A prospective study should be undertaken to assess the ability of the Life-Space Assessment to predict hospitalization and other outcomes in adults with CF.
