Determinants of Malnutrition among Elderly Women Living in Institutional Care.
Article in Journal of mid-life health. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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: Healthy aging and well-being are largely influenced by nutrition. Objective: The objective of the study was to evaluate the risk of malnutrition in elderly women residing in institutional care and its contributing factors. Methodology: One hundred institutionalized women aged 60 years and above were screened for malnutrition using Mini Nutritional Assessment (MNA) tool. Details on sociodemographic profile, physical activity, medical conditions, and food habits were gathered through researcher administered survey method. Results: The study participants had an average height of 149.70 cm (±7.31), weight of 50.72 kg (±9.11), body mass index of 22.77 kg/m Conclusion: Geriatric residents in old-age homes require adequate nutrition to maintain health. This can be achieved by providing individualized meal planning, reducing barriers to eating, and incorporating nutrient-dense foods.
