Evaluation of Risk Factors for Fall Incidence Based on Statistical Analysis.
Article in International journal of environmental research and public health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundFalls are common among hospitalized patients, particularly affecting older adults. This study analyzed patients who experienced falls at Kangwon National University Hospital (KNUH) and classified them based on department and nursing shift hours.
methodsData from adult patients admitted to KNUH between 2018 and 2023 who experienced falls were analyzed, focusing on demographics, medications, comorbidities, alcohol and smoking histories, and the Morse Fall Scale. The goal was to identify the key variables contributing to falls in hospitalized patients.
resultsFrom 2018 to 2023, 336 internal medicine and 159 surgical patients experienced falls. Surgical patients had a longer length of stay (34.49 ± 47.52 vs. 24.63 ± 28.37 d,
conclusionsThe study found higher fall rates in internal medicine patients who had shorter lengths of stay and took fewer medications. Further research is needed on fall risk factors and prevention strategies.
