The Incidence and Influencing Factors of In-hospital Frailty Progression following Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation.
Observational study in Internal medicine (Tokyo, Japan), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Objective Patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) are generally older and frailty is therefore an important clinical issue. The baseline degree of frailty is associated with the prognosis in patients undergoing TAVI; however, the incidence of in-hospital frailty progression and its influencing factors have not yet been elucidated. Methods This observational, single-center study retrospectively evaluated 281 patients who underwent TAVI. The degree of frailty at baseline and discharge was evaluated using the Clinical Frailty Scale (CFS). In-hospital frailty progression was defined as an increase of at least one level in the CFS score at discharge from baseline, and predictors of frailty progression were assessed. Results The median baseline CFS score was 4.0 (interquartile range: 3.0-4.0). In-hospital frailty progression was observed in 49 patients (17.4%). No significant differences were observed in age, sex, comorbidities, or surgical risk scores between patients with and without frailty progression. Patients with frailty progression experienced stroke more frequently during hospitalization than those without (12.2% vs. 1.3%, p=0.001). A multivariable logistic analysis showed that in-hospital stroke was a significant predictor of frailty progression (odds ratio, 10.7; 95% confidence interval: 2.34-49.2, p=0.002). Patients with frailty progression had a longer hospital stay than those without frailty progression [7.0 (4.0-17.0) vs. 4.0 (4.0-8.0) days, p=0.001]. Conclusion In-hospital frailty progression was not uncommon in patients undergoing TAVI. Stroke incidence was a significant influencing factor in frailty progression, whereas baseline comorbidities and surgical risks were not.
