The Association Between Activity Limitation Stages and Admission to Facilities Providing Long-term Care Among Older Medicare Beneficiaries.
Article in American journal of physical medicine & rehabilitation, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
objectiveThis study aimed to examine whether activity limitation stages are associated with admission to facilities providing long-term care (LTC).
designCohort study using Medicare Current Beneficiary Survey data from the 2005-2009 entry panels. A total of 14,580 community-dwelling Medicare beneficiaries 65 years or older were included. Proportional subhazard models examined associations between activity limitation stages and time to first LTC admission, adjusting for baseline sociodemographics and health conditions.
resultsThe weighted annual rate of LTC admission was 1.1%. In the adjusted model, compared to activity of daily living (ADL) stage 0, the hazard ratios (95% confidence intervals [CIs]) were 2.0 (1.5-2.7), 3.9 (2.9-5.4), 3.6 (2.5-5.3), and 4.7 (2.5-9.0) for ADL stage I (mild limitation), ADL stage II (moderate limitation), ADL stage III (severe limitation), and ADL stage IV (complete limitation), respectively. Compared to instrumental ADL (IADL) stage 0, the hazard ratios, and 95% CIs for IADL stages I to IV were 2.0 (1.4-2.7), 3.7 (2.6-5.4), 4.6 (3.3-6.5), and 7.6 (4.6-12.3), respectively.
conclusionsActivity limitation stages are strongly associated with future admission to LTC and may therefore be useful in identifying specific supportive care needs among vulnerable older community-dwelling adults, which may reduce or the delay need for admission to LTC.
