Negative Perception of Aging Is Associated With Frailty Transitions Within a Cohort of Sexual Minority Men.
Article in Innovation in aging, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
BACKGROUND AND
objectivesOlder people have an increased risk of developing frailty, an age-related clinical syndrome associated with worse health outcomes. This study examined the effect of self-perception of aging (ie, age discrepancy-individuals feel younger/older than their chronological age and aging satisfaction) on frailty transitions. RESEARCH DESIGN AND
methodsWe use longitudinal data from 549 HIV-/499 HIV+ sexual minority men aged 50 years or older enrolled in the Multicenter AIDS Cohort Study. To test the association of self-perception of aging on transitions between states of frailty (nonfrail/frail), defined using Fried Frailty Phenotype, a multinomial modeling was used.
resultsWith remaining nonfrail as the referent group, participants reporting low aging satisfaction (vs moderate aging satisfaction) had increased odds of transitioning from nonfrail to frail (odds ratio [OR]: 2.72; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.56-4.74), frail to nonfrail (OR: 3.40; 95% CI: 1.62-7.12), or remaining frail (frail to frail; OR: 6.64; 95% CI: 3.88-11.38). Participants reporting older subjective age (vs no age discrepancy) had increased odds of transitioning from nonfrail to frail (OR: 2.50; 95% CI: 1.11-5.64), frail to nonfrail (OR: 4.47; 95% CI: 1.85-10.81), or remaining frail (frail to frail; OR: 5.68; 95% CI: 3.06-10.56). High aging satisfaction and younger subjective age were not statistically associated with frailty transitions. DISCUSSION AND IMPLICATIONS: Our findings show that negative self-perception of aging (ie, older subjective age and low aging satisfaction) is associated with frailty transitions (nonfrail to frail, frail to nonfrail, and frail to frail) when compared to remaining nonfrail.
