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

In 1998, Fried and Walston introduced the Cycle of Frailty (CF) as a foundational concept for defining the physical frailty phenotype (FP). While the FP has been extensively validated, the CF hypothesis lacks equivalent support. This study aimed to internally validate the CF using structural equation modeling (SEM) in a clinical dataset of adults aged 50 or older attending an outpatient falls clinic. Measures included: age, morbidity, nutrition, sarcopenia by bioelectrical impedance, VO
