Factors associated with change in activities of daily living performance in home health care patients with diabetes.

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
Older adults with diabetes are at risk for impairments in activities of daily living (ADL) performance. Home health (HH) services help patients regain their ability to perform ADLs following hospitalization, but there may be disparities in ADL improvement. We aimed to identify factors associated with change in ADL performance from the start of HH care to discharge in HH patients with diabetes age ≥65. This secondary analysis used Outcome and Assessment Information Set-D data collected by a HH agency. The sample (n = 1350) had a mean age of 76.3 (SD 7.3). Black/African American race and bowel incontinence/ostomy were associated with less ADL improvement. The following factors were associated with greater ADL improvement: having a caregiver who needed training/support, surgical wounds, pain that interfered with activity, confusion, and better scores in prior functioning. Overall, most patients improved their ADL performance while receiving HH care, but there are disparities that should be addressed.
