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

We sought to explore factors associated with changes in activities of daily living (ADL) in home-based medical care (HBMC). We used data from the Observational Study of Nagoya Elderly with Home Medical Care 2, in which HBMC was provided for physical and/or mental disability. ADL were assessed using the Barthel Index and its mobility and self-care categories. Of 40 eligible participants, half were classified into an ADL decline group. The percentage with a decreased Mini-Nutritional Assessment-Short Form (MNA-SF) score was significantly higher in the ADL decline group. Worsening of MNA-SF was significantly associated with a decline in the mobility category but not in the self-care category. ADL decline was frequently observed and was associated with worsening of nutritional status in HBMC.
