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
Objective: To identify the factors contributing to anxiety among adults aged 65 and older receiving care at the Geriatric Service of the Naval Medical Center. Methods: An analytical study was conducted through secondary analysis of a database from a study carried out between 2010 and 2015 at the Naval Medical Center of Peru (CEMENA). The data from 1686 participants were analyzed, with anxiety as the dependent variable, measured using the Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale with a cutoff point of 14. The analysis was performed using STATA software. Bivariate analysis was conducted using the chi-squared and Student Results: In the multivariate analysis, anxiety was found to be significantly associated with gait speed (PR 1.11; 95% CI 1.03-1.20), depressive symptoms (PR 1.97; 95% CI 1.81-2.16), polypharmacy (PR 1.14; 95% CI 1.04-1.06), and education level (PR 0.83; 95% CI 0.76-0.90). Additionally, marital status was found to be associated with the likelihood of anxiety: being married (PR 0.64; 95% CI 0.53-0.77), widowed (PR 0.54; 95% CI 0.44-0.66), or divorced (PR 0.63; 95% CI 0.49-0.83) were all linked to a lower probability of anxiety compared to being single. Conclusion: Factors such as depressive symptoms, polypharmacy, slow gait speed, education level, and marital status were found to be associated with anxiety in older adults.
