Circadian disturbances and frailty risk in older adults: a prospective cohort study.
Article in Research square, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Frailty is characterized by diminished resilience to stressor events. It associates with adverse future health outcomes and impedes healthy aging. The circadian system orchestrates a ~24-h rhythm in bodily functions in synchrony with the day-night cycle, and disturbed circadian regulation plays an important role in many age-related health consequences. We investigated prospective associations of circadian disturbances with incident frailty in over 1,000 older adults who had been followed annually for up to 16 years. We found that decreased rhythm strength, reduced stability, or increased variation, were associated with a higher risk of incident frailty, and faster worsening of the overall frailty symptoms over time. Perturbed circadian rest-activity rhythms may be an early sign or risk factor for frailty in older adults.
