The current status and influencing factors of oral frailty in elderly maintenance hemodialysis patients based on the Andersen Oral Health Outcome Model.
Article in BMC oral health, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 papers, 2 of them syntheses 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
objectivesTo analyse the elements that influence oral frailty in elderly maintenance hemodialysis patients and to comprehend the present state of this condition.
methodsA survey of 325 elderly maintenance hemodialysis patients from three hospitals in Huzhou City was conducted using a general information questionnaire, the Oral Health Assessment Tool, the Knowledge, Attitude, and Practice of Oral Health Questionnaire, the Social Frailty, the Frail Scale, and the Oral Frailty Index.
resultsIn elderly maintenance hemodialysis patients, the prevalence of oral frailty was 45.2%. Factors influencing it include the Oral Health Knowledge Score (OR = 0.84, 95% CI 0.72-0.98), Oral Health Behavior Score (OR = 0.95, 95% CI 0.92-0.98), insufficient dialysis (OR = 0.30, 95% CI 0.14-0.63), social frailty (OR = 3.72, 95% CI 1.57-8.83), physical frailty (OR = 3.12, 95% CI 1.55-6.30), number of missing teeth (OR = 1.09, 95% CI 1.03-1.15), swallowing abnormalities (OR = 2.84, 95% CI 1.26-6.38), and oral health scores (OR = 1.34, 95% CI 1.14-1.57) (P < 0.05).
conclusionPatients on elderly maintenance hemodialysis are more susceptible to oral frailty. Nursing staff should develop scientifically sound, effective, and targeted oral management strategies for these patients.
