Potentially Inappropriate Medications Use among Older Adults with Comorbid Diabetes and Hypertension in an Ambulatory Care Setting.
Article in Journal of diabetes research, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 papers, 2 of them syntheses 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
Objective: This study aims to estimate the prevalence of PIMs use and its associated factors among older adults with comorbid diabetes and hypertension. Methods: A cross-sectional retrospective study was used, including 1,853 older adults (age ≥65 years) with diabetes and hypertension who visited an ambulatory care setting. The study objectives were to estimate the prevalence and factors associated with PIMs use based on the 2019 American Geriatric Society (AGS) Beers criteria. Results: Almost one out of two individuals had PIMs used, with the average number of medications taken being seven. The most commonly prescribed PIMs were the use of gastrointestinal and endocrine medications. High risk of PIMs use was among those with ischemic heart disease, anxiety, and polypharmacy. Conclusions: Given the higher PIMs use among older adults with diabetes and hypertension comorbidities, tailored strategies and interventions to minimize PIMs use in this population are warranted.
