1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

In recent years, the complex relationship between frailty and cognitive functioning has been increasingly investigated. Accordingly, the concept of "cognitive frailty" was recently proposed to describe a clinical condition characterized by the simultaneous occurrence of both physical frailty and cognitive impairment, in absence of overt dementia diagnosis or underlying neurological conditions. This novel construct has several elements of novelty and may delineate a promising target for preventive and therapeutic actions against age-related conditions. In the present paper we discuss the main issues that are still limiting the clinical and research implementation of the cognitive frailty construct. In particular, a) how to operationalize its definition; b) the supporting epidemiological data; and c) the underlying clinical and biological characteristics constitute points that need to be addressed and clarified.
