Trajectories of Functional Decline in Older Adults: A Latent Class Growth Curve Analysis.
Article in Western journal of nursing research, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
There have been few studies examining trajectories of functional decline among older adults in the United States using large representative databases. The purpose of this study was to describe the mean trajectory of functional decline for a representative sample of US older adults, to determine the optimal number of latent classes within that sample, and to identify key differences between the classes on select variables. Through the use of link functions, non-linear trajectories can be modeled. Three classes were identified and were named
