Daytime Activity Is Associated With Discharge to Home in Older Adults Recovering From Critical Illness.
Article in Journal of gerontological nursing, 2021. 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
Hospitalized older adults recovering from critical illness after transition of care out of an intensive care unit (ICU) are often inactive, which may affect discharge disposition and hospital length of stay (LOS). The current study explored relationships between early post-ICU activity, discharge disposition, and LOS. Actigraphy measured post-ICU daytime and nighttime activity (mean activity counts/min). Prospective chart review provided discharge disposition and LOS (days). Independent samples t tests compared post-ICU daytime activity by discharge disposition. Multivariate regression examined associations between post-ICU activity and LOS. Post-ICU daytime activity was greater among those discharged home (54.42 [SD = 29.3 counts/min]) than those discharged to a facility (33.26 [SD = 24.26 counts/min]): t(26) = 2.054, p = 0.050). Lower post-ICU daytime activity was associated with longer LOS (β = -0.322, p = 0.041). Future research should investigate whether post-ICU daytime inactivity during hospitalization is a modifiable risk factor for worse outcomes among older adults discharged from the ICU.
