Factors Associated with Low Albumin in Community-Dwelling Older Adults Aged 75 Years and Above.
Article in International journal of environmental research and public health, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
This study aimed to clarify the factors associated with low albumin in Japanese older adults aged ≥75 years. The data utilized were the health checkup data of older adults aged ≥75 years from 42 municipalities in Gifu Prefecture, which were provided by the National Health Insurance database system. After excluding the data of individuals with incomplete information on serum albumin, BMI, lifestyle habits, or weight at previous year, the data from 18,674 individuals' health checkup were analyzed. A logistic regression showed that low albumin was associated with smoking, not walking at least 1 h/day, slow walking speed, difficulty in chewing, slow eating speed, weight loss in the previous year, and underweight. Furthermore, an analysis conducted for older adults aged ≥85 years showed that low albumin was associated with not walking at least 1 h/day, difficulty in chewing, slow eating speed, weight loss in the previous year, and underweight. In the future, the number of older adults will increase in Japan; therefore, a strategic approach to promote the health of these aged individuals will become even more necessary. An early approach to maintaining an active physical life, an appropriate weight, and good oral function will lead to improved health in older adults.
