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

There is a small, but growing, evidence base on obtaining the patient's perspective on frailty, which can help guide future research and clinical management strategies. This mini-review provides a brief summary of some qualitative studies on the patient's perspective on frailty with a focus on the study design and emerging findings to date. We reviewed seven studies in total, examining how they approached the research question and their main findings. We provide a suggestions and considerations for future research on this topic.
