Frailty Status Typologies in Spanish Older Population: Associations with Successful Aging.
Article in International journal of environmental research and public health, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundDefining frailty typologies would contribute to guiding specific care interventions. These typologies could additionally be related to different health outcomes. This study aims at identifying subgroups of frail older adults based on the physical frailty phenotype and examining the relationships of these frailty profiles with quality of life and perceived health.
methodsThis study relies on data from the SHARE project, namely a representative sample of 1765 Spanish-dwelling older adults identified as frail or pre-frail. Analysis included general descriptive statistics, exploratory latent class analysis (LCA) to determine the number of frailty subgroups, and LCA with covariates to examine differential relationships with markers of successful aging.
resultsStatistical criteria and interpretability of the classes suggested that the LCA model with four classes should be retained. Class 1 was identified as the "frail people" group, Class 2 "activity problems" group, Class 3 "fatigued" group, and those belonging to Class 4 "lack of strength" group. Final LCA with covariates showed lower levels of quality of life and perceived health of the "frail" as compared to other frailty subgroups.
conclusionThis study revealed four different patterns of frailty attributes and further offered evidence on individuals' differential status of health regarding distinct frailty conditions.
