1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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: To explore the influencing factors affecting chronic diseases of elderly in Kunming. Methods: Data were collected from November 2020 to August 2021.The crosssectional study based on community was adopted. And hierarchical random sampling was used. A face to face questionnaire survey was conducted among the respondents or family caregivers. The contents we collected mainly include general demographic characteristics and other related influencing factors, self-reported chronic diseases and disability status. Results: 1161 elderly were investigated in total. The percentage of non-communicable chronic disease among the rural elderly was higher than that of urban elderly. Binary logistic regression analysis showed that in urban areas, female (OR: 0.592;95 %CI:0.396 ∼ 0.885), not in marriage (OR:1.643;95 %CI:1.093 ∼ 2.470)and not very satisfied with family support (OR:1.858;95 %CI:1.115 ∼ 3.096) are the influencing factors of chronic disease, while in rural areas are not in marriage (OR:1.961;95 %CI:1.021 ∼ 3.763), more health-promoting behavior (OR:0.582;95%CI:0.350 ∼ 0.970), not very satisfied with family support (OR:1.858;95 %CI:1.115 ∼ 3.096), age 70-79 (OR:1.805;95 %CI:1.705 ∼ 3.031), age 80 and above (OR:2.081;95 %CI:1.010 ∼ 4.288), empty nest family (OR:0.389;95 %CI:0.186 ∼ 0.811)and personal monthly income 2001-3000 (OR:0.353;95CI%:0.180 ∼ 0.693). The influencing factors of urban-rural multimorbidity and non-communicable chronic disease with disability also exist differences at individual, family and social levels. Conclusions: The prevalence rate of non-communicable chronic diseases among the elderly in Yunnan Province is not optimistic. Personal, family and social factors would affect the non-communicable chronic diseases of the elderly and there exist difference in influencing factor of non-communicable chronic disease between urban and rural areas.
