Frailty is independently associated with 1-year mortality after hospitalization for acute heart failure.
Article in International journal of cardiology. Heart & vasculature, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 18 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
introductionFrailty is a complex condition that results from the loss of physiological reserve across multiple systems. Its presence should be considered in the aging heart failure population, since it is an important predictor of death and institutionalization in the elderly. METHODS AND
resultsIn a prospective, observational and analytical single-center study of 100 elderly patients hospitalized for acute heart failure, we assessed the characteristics associated with an increased hospital and 1-year mortality. Frailty was evaluated with the Clinical Frailty Scale, and there was a significant association between its presence and 1-year mortality (RR = 2.03; 95% CI = 1.18-3.48;
conclusionFrailty can be assessed with a simple bed-side scale and provides significant prognostic information in acute heart failure patients.
