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

objectivesTo examine whether neighborhood context moderates the relationship between multiple chronic conditions (MCCs) and function in Medicare Advantage (MA) beneficiaries.

designCross-sectional study.

settingMedicare Health Outcome Survey Cohort 16 baseline data from 2013.

participantsMA beneficiaries aged 65 and older (N=187,434). MEASUREMENTS: We defined disadvantaged neighborhoods as those with an Area Deprivation Index greater than the 85

resultsMore than one third (35.6%) of the sample reported a functional limitation. Beneficiaries with MCCs were more likely to report a functional limitation those with 0 or 1 chronic condition (odds ratio (OR)=2.63, 95% confidence interval (CI)=2.50-2.77). Beneficiaries in more-disadvantaged neighborhoods were more likely to report a functional limitation than those in less-disadvantaged neighborhoods (OR=1.14, 95% CI=1.08-1.21). In older adults with MCCs, the probability of reporting a functional limitation was 12 percentage points greater in those living in more-disadvantaged neighborhoods than in those living in less-disadvantaged neighborhoods.

conclusionNeighborhood context is a significant predictor of functional limitation and moderates the association between chronic conditions and functional limitations. Health plans and public health officials could use publicly available indicators such as the ADI to target interventions to reduce functional impairment.
