Risk factors for preoperative frailty in older patients with gastric cancer: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Synthesis in Supportive care in cancer : official journal of the Multinational Association of Supportive Care in Cancer, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
purposeTo summarize the available evidence on risk factors for preoperative frailty in older gastric cancer patients.
methodsWe comprehensively searched the CNKI, Wanfang, VIP, CBM, PubMed, Embase, The Cochrane Library, Web of Science, and CINAHL databases for preoperative articles on risk factors for frailty in older gastric cancer patients. The search was conducted from the time of construction of the library to January 27, 2024, with no language restrictions. The quality of the included studies was rated by the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale and the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality tool.
resultsA total of 20 studies were included, including 16 cohort studies and 4 cross-sectional studies, with a total sample size of 51,717 individuals. The results of the meta-analysis showed that age, albumin, hemoglobin, cancer stage III-IV, Charlson Comorbidity Index score ≥ 3, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group score > 2, American Society of Anesthesiologists score > 2, smoking, nutritional risk, high school degree or above, and sleep disorders are the main influencing factors for the occurrence of preoperative frailty in older gastric cancer patients. Among them, high school degree or above was a protective factor.
conclusionsOur study provides valid evidence of risk factors for preoperative frailty in older patients with gastric cancer and informs clinical healthcare professionals to make targeted interventions.
