Impact of Hospitalization on Patients Ability to Perform Basic Activities of Daily Living.
Article in Canadian geriatrics journal : CGJ, 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
Functional independence is dictated by the ability to perform basic activities of daily living (ADLs). Although hospitalization is associated with impairments in function, we know less about patients' functional trajectory following hospitalization. We examined patients' ability to do basic ADLs across pre-admission, admission, and follow-up (discharge or two-weeks post-admission) and determined which factors predicted changes in ADLs at follow-up. A secondary analysis of a small prospective cohort study of older patients (n=83, 50 females, 81 ± 8 years) from the Emergency Department and a Geriatric Unit were included. ADL scores (dressing, walking, bathing, eating, in and out of bed, and using the toilet) and frailty level (via the Clinical Frailty Scale) were measured. Comparing follow-up to pre-admission, patients reported worse ADL scores for dressing (36% of patients), walking (31%), bathing (34%), eating (25%), in and out of bed (37%), and using the toilet (35%). Most patients (59%) had more difficulty with 1+ ADL at follow-up versus pre-admission, with one-fourth of patients having greater difficulty with 3+ ADLs. Older age and higher frailty level were associated with (all,
