Intrinsic capacity and its association with predictors among Chinese empty nest older adults in communities: a latent class analysis.
Article in BMC geriatrics, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 papers.
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
objectivesThis study aimed to examine Intrinsic Capacity (IC) subgroups and the association of IC subgroups with IC predictors in Chinese urban empty nesters.
methodsA convenient sample of 385 older adults aged 60 and above in Community Health Service Center was recruited from Hei Longjiang Province, China, between June 2023 and December 2023. Latent class Analysis (LCA) was conducted to explore IC subgroups using the sensory, cognition, locomotion, psychological, and vitality domains of IC as input variables. Multinomial logistic regression was performed to explore the association between latent subgroups and the IC predictors.
resultsWe identified three IC subgroups: "Low IC level-Low locomotion domain"(33.5%), "Medium IC level-Low sensory domain" (16.9%) and "High IC level" (49.6%). Being young, married, without multimorbidity, receiving visits from children ≥ 1 time per week, a low score of self-neglect, a high score of social networking, and a low score of loneliness were closely correlated to the "High IC level" subgroup of empty-nest older adults in communities.
conclusionThe potential subgroups of the IC of empty-nest older adults in communities can be identified through five IC domains. The older empty-nesters should pay extra attention to their critical IC predictors. Community medical staff and other workers should provide intervention measures for different subgroups of older adults to improve their IC in an effective and individualized manner.
