Associations between Nutritional Status, Frailty and Health-Related Quality of Life among Older Long-Term Care Residents in Helsinki.
Article in The journal of nutrition, health & aging, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 20 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
objectivesThe aim of this study was to examine how nutritional status modifies the association between frailty and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) among older nursing home residents. We also investigated how residents' energy intake is linked to frailty score. DESIGN AND
participantsA total of 486 older (> 65 years of age) nursing home residents living in Helsinki, Finland were included to this cross-sectional study.
methodsWe collected data on the residents' background information, HRQoL by 15D, nutritional status by Mini Nutritional Assessment (MNA), frailty status (Fried's phenotype criteria; pre-frail: 1-2 criteria and frail: 3-5) and energy intake (one- or two-day food records).
resultsThe frail residents were more often malnourished and had lower HRQoL than those in the prefrail group. Energy and protein intakes were significantly lower among frail women than prefrail women. Energy intake was linearly associated with frailty points. When residents in the frail and prefrail groups were divided according to their nutritional status, both nutritional status and frailty were associated with HRQoL, but there was no interaction.
conclusionsBoth nutritional status and frailty were associated with HRQoL, and lower energy intake indicated a higher frailty score. An adequate energy intake may promote residents' HRQoL and prevent frailty in long-term care.
