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

backgroundRecognizing functional deficits early and counteracting them with a multimodal treatment concept is one of the most important tasks of general practitioners, who are usually the primary medical contact for geriatric patients.

aimIllustration of strategies for a biopsychosocial assessment of geriatric patients and for the creation of individually adapted prevention concepts in general practice. MATERIAL AND

methodsLiterature research on the theoretical background of the most important prevention approaches for geriatric patients as well as considerations on their relevance and implementation in daily practice.

resultsFor geriatric patients prevention measures should be implemented simultaneously on all four prevention levels. The main objective is promoting physical and mental exercise. The risks of immobility, depression, cognitive decline, malnutrition and, last but not least, polypharmacy are of particular importance.

conclusionGeriatric patients represent a very heterogeneous group. In order to be able to take individual preventive action, a multidimensional assessment of key factors for maintaining functionality and relative health is required, even though chronic conditions may already exist.
