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

objectiveTo investigate (1) the concurrent validity of the Nursing Home Life-Space Diameter (NHLSD) and the Home-based Life-Space Assessment (Hb-LSA), (2) the correlated factors of life-space, and (3) the factors that affected the NHLSD score for the elderly in a geriatric health service facility, or

methodsThis cross-sectional study included 32 participants in a

resultsNHLSD and Hb-LSA were significantly correlated (r=0.710, P<0.01). NHLSD was significantly correlated with more measurements than Hb-LSA was; i.e., NHLSD was significantly correlated with communication ability, independence of daily living (Barthel Index; BI), maximum knee extension strength, grip strength, function in daily living, and three QOL measurements: positive affects, ability to communicate, and spontaneity and activity. A stepwise multiple regression analysis indicated that the BI total score, the maximum knee extension strength, and spontaneity and activity (one of the QOL items) were significantly correlated with the NHLSD score.

conclusionsNHLSD can measure the mobility levels of elderly persons in
