Longitudinal trajectories of disability among Chinese adults: the role of cardiometabolic multimorbidity.
Article in Aging clinical and experimental research, 2024. 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
backgroundCardiometabolic multimorbidity (CM) has been found to be associated with higher mortality and functional limitations. However, few studies have investigated the longitudinal association between CM and disability in the Chinese population and whether these associations vary by smoking status.
methodsThe study included 16,754 participants from four waves (2011, 2013, 2015, and 2018) of China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS) (mean age: 59, female: 51%). CM was assesed at baseline and defined as having two or more of diabetes, stroke, or heart disease. Disability was repeatedly measured by summing the number of impaired activities of daily living (ADL) and instrumental activities of daily living (IADL) during the 7-year follow-up. Linear mixed-effects model was used to determine the association of CM and trajectories of disability and to assess the modification effect of smoking status in these associations.
resultsParticipants with CM at baseline had a faster progression of disability compared to those without CM (CM: β = 0.13, 95% CI: 0.05 to 0.21). Current smokers with CM developed disability faster than their counterparts (P
conclusionCM was associated with more a rapid disability progression. Notably, being current smokers may amplify the adverse effects of CM on disability progression.
