The impact of cognitive function on physical activity, physical function and quality of life in older adults following a hip fracture.
Article in Age and ageing, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers.
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 determine the impact of cognitive function on physical activity (PA), physical function and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in older adults within the first year after hip fracture (HF) surgery.
methodsWe included 397 home-dwelling individuals aged 70 years or older with the ability to walk 10 m before the fracture. Cognitive function was measured at 1 month and other outcomes were assessed at 1, 4 and 12 months postoperatively. Mini-Mental State Examination was used to assess cognitive function, accelerometer-based body-worn sensors to register PA, Short Physical Performance Battery to test physical function and EuroQol-5-dimension-3-level to estimate the HRQoL. Data were analysed by linear mixed-effects models with interactions and ordinal logistic regression models.
resultsCognitive function, adjusted for the pre-fracture ability to perform activities of daily living, comorbidity, age and gender, had an impact on PA [b = 3.64, 95% confidence interval (CI): 2.20-5.23, P < 0.001] and physical function (b = 0.08, 95% CI: 0.04-0.11, P < 0.001; b = 0.12, 95% CI: 0.09-0.15, P < 0.001; and b = 0.14, 95% CI: 0.10-0.18, P < 0.001 at 1, 4 and 12 months, respectively). The cognitive function did not have a considerable impact on HRQoL.
conclusionsFor older adults with HFs, cognitive function 1 month postoperatively had a significant impact on PA and physical function in the first postoperative year. For the HRQoL, little or no evidence of such an effect was found.
