[Frailty from the rehabilitation medicine point of view].
Review in Zeitschrift fur Gerontologie und Geriatrie, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
backgroundFrailty syndrome exerts an increasing challenge to health care systems. Thus, rehabilitative interventions should be taken to prevent or slow this syndrome.
methodsBased on the definitions of frailty and rehabilitation, the present work gives an overview of current treatment options. The methodology and evidence for device-assisted training forms such as neuromuscular electrical stimulation or mechanical muscle stimulation are discussed. The use of various forms of training for frail patients is critically discussed.
resultsAmong other things, age- and disease-related changes in skeletal muscle play a central role in the development of frailty. Progressive strength training is an evidence-based rehabilitative strategy to improve function. Since this form of strength training can be a vigorous exercise especially for the elderly and infirmed, it can be offered as an alternative form of training.
