Analysis of risk factors for advanced age in patients with frozen shoulder.
Article in Aging clinical and experimental research, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
objectiveTo explore the risk factors of elderly patients with frozen shoulder.
methods262 cases of scapulohumeral periarthritis treated in our hospital from January 2020 to December 2020 were analyzed retrospectively. According to the age of patients, patients younger than 60 years old were divided into middle-aged group (101 cases), patients between 60 and 75 years old were divided into old-aged group (91 cases), and patients ≥ 75 years old were divided into old-aged group (70 cases). The general demographic data and clinical data of the three groups were compared. Visual analogue scale (VAS) was used to evaluate the degree of pain. Finally, the dependent variable is set as whether the onset age of scapulohumeral periarthritis patients is advanced. Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors of frozen shoulder patients at an advanced age.
resultsThere were no significant differences in general demographic data, fixed position, hypertension history, smoking history, drinking history, supraspinatus muscular atrophy and physical exercise among the three groups (all P > 0.05). The course of disease, diabetes, surgical treatment, pain degree, operation time, cholecystitis, coronary heart disease, pain degree three months after operation and cervical spondylosis in the elderly group were all higher than those in the middle-aged group and the elderly group, and the differences were statistically significant (all P < 0.05). The course of scapulohumeral periarthritis, the degree of pain and the degree of pain 3 months after operation in the elderly group were higher than those in the middle-aged group, with significant differences (all P < 0.05). Univariate Logistic regression analysis showed that the risk factors of scapulohumeral periarthritis in the elderly included diabetes mellitus (OR = 3.067, 95% CI 1.881-4.587, P < 0.001), operative treatment (OR = 3.076, 95% CI 1.365-6.765, P = 0.006), VAS score (OR = 2.267, 95% CI 1.117-3.887, P = 0.013), operation time (OR = 1.537, 95% CI 1.305-2.579, P < 0.001), cholecystitis (OR = 2.143, 95% CI 1.019-4.876, P = 0.023), coronary heart disease(OR = 3.128, 95% CI 1.428-7.019, P = 0.005), VAS at 3 months after operation (OR = 1.537, 95% CI 0.786-2.635, P = 0.002), and cervical spondylosis(OR = 1.162, 95% CI 1.029-1.321, P = 0.012). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the risk factors for the onset of the disease at advanced age included fatty infiltration (OR = 4.021, 95% CI 2.981-9.682, P < 0.001), surgical treatment (OR = 4.109, 95% CI 1.419-7.832, P = 0.008), VAS score (OR = 3.081, 95% CI 1.042-7.931, P = 0.046) and operation time (OR = 1.537, 95% CI 1.305-2.579, P < 0.001).
conclusionRisk factors of frozen shoulder at advanced age include fat infiltration, surgical treatment, VAS score and surgical time. In clinical practice, we should refer to the above indicators to help patients with early medical intervention and prevent their onset.
