Investigation of nutrition status and analysis of 180-day readmission factors in elderly hospitalized patients with COPD.
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 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
BACKGROUND AND
objectiveMalnutrition is prevalent among elderly patients with COPD, who also experience a high rate of readmission. Therefore, it is imperative to investigate the nutrition status of these patients, identify risk factors for readmission, and offer insights for clinical management. To achieve this, a cross-sectional study was conducted to investigate factors influencing nutrition status using GLIM criteria and explore the 180-day readmission factors among hospitalized elderly COPD patients. METHORDS AND
resultsThe data were collected from a hospital in Southwest China, encompassing a cohort of 319 eligible patients. Among elderly hospitalized COPD patients, the prevalence of malnutrition was 49.53% (158/319). Multivariate logistic regression revealed malnutrition (OR = 3.184), very severe airway obstruction (OR = 3.735), and Number of comorbidities ≥ 3 (OR = 5.754) as significant risk factors for 180-day readmission.
conclusionsThese findings suggest that malnutrition is a prevalent issue among elderly hospitalized patients with COPD and constitutes one of the risk factors contributing to the 180-day readmission rate. Therefore, timely identification and treatment for malnourished patients are crucial.
