The Relations Among Physical Indicators, Cognitive Status, Community Participation, and Depression of the Frail Male Elderly in Taiwan.
Article in American journal of men's health. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
This study explored the basic attributes, physiological indices, cognitive states, and community participation of older male outpatients with frailty for predicting depression. Questionnaires were collected using purposive sampling from a medical clinic in a teaching hospital in northern Taiwan. One hundred and ninety frail men enrolled as participants. The results revealed that older male adults with frailty, the age, residence, income, self-reported health status, alcohol consumption, total instrumental activities of daily living (IADL) scores in physiological indices, IADL grouping, cognitive state score, each Mini-Mental State Examination category, and involvement and dedication scores exhibited statistical differences from depression scores. Depression determinants, such as an excellent and normal self-reported health status and IADL total score, could predict the depression status of male older adults with frailty. Nursing personnel should assess the self-reported health status and self-care ability of male older adults with frailty early to prevent or delay geriatric depression.
