Cross sectional association between cognitive frailty and disability among community-dwelling older adults: Focus on the role of social factors.

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: This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of cognitive frailty and the influence of social factors on the association between different levels of cognitive frailty and disability. Methods: A nationally representative survey of non-institutionalized community-dwelling older adults in Korea was used. A total, 9,894 older adults were included in the analysis. We assessed the effects of social factors using social activities, social contacts, living arrangements, emotional support, and satisfaction with friends and neighbors. Results: The prevalence of cognitive frailty was 1.6%, which was consistent with other population-based studies. Hierarchical logistic analysis demonstrated that the association between different levels of cognitive frailty and disability was attenuated when social participation, social contact, and satisfaction with friends and community were included in the model, and the magnitude of these effects differed across the levels of cognitive frailty. Discussion: Considering the influence of social factors, interventions to enhance social relationships can help slow down the progression of cognitive frailty to disability.
