[Survey on psychosomatic treatment options in geriatric clinical routine: state of the art].

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
backgroundMental and physical disorders form a common body of experience and suffering in old age that can negatively influence aging. Experience and handling of age-associated functional impairments are challenging for multimorbid patients, their relatives and the healthcare providers involved. Among patients aged 70 years or older more than 50% suffer from psychopathological symptoms and 30-40% of geriatric inpatients have a psychosomatic or psychiatric comorbidity; however, despite this high prevalence of mental problems in older patients they are hardly ever treated and if treatment is offered it is carried out by specialists for somatic medicine. The aim of the present study of the working group on gerontopsychosomatics of the German Geriatric Society (DGG) was the evaluation of interdisciplinary co-management opportunities for geriatricians who treat inpatients with gerontopsychosomatic needs.
methodOnline survey among members of the DGG regarding experiences with interdisciplinary co-management of inpatients with gerontopsychosomatic needs.
resultsThe majority of the respondents were senior physicians in a department for geriatrics. While every second institution had access to a psychiatric consultation service, psychosomatic cooperation was only offered in every fifth department. Psychosomatic co-management was particularly required in connection with neurogeriatric problems.
conclusionThere is need of gerontopsychosomatic co-management among geriatric inpatients; however, in comparison to gerontopsychiatric co-management the options are deficient and need to be strengthened.
