Prevalence and determinants of multidimensional frailty in hospitalized older adults with coronary heart disease: a LASSO regression analysis.

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
Purpose: Frailty has increasingly been recognized as a multidimensional syndrome and is particularly prevalent among older adults with cardiovascular disease. This study aimed to assess the prevalence of multidimensional frailty and identify its key determinants in hospitalized elderly patients with coronary heart disease (CHD), with the goal of informing targeted strategies for early assessment and intervention. Patients and methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted involving 508 patients aged 60 years or older who were hospitalized with CHD at a tertiary hospital in China. Frailty was assessed using the Tilburg Frailty Indicator (TFI). Variables with statistical significance in univariate analysis were entered into a Selection Operator (LASSO) regression for selection. Least Absolute Shrinkage and LASSO regression and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to identify significant predictors. Results: A total of 508 elderly patients with coronary heart disease who were hospitalized were included in the study, of whom 270 patients developed multidimensional frailty, resulting in an incidence rate of 53.15%. Variables with statistical significance in univariate analysis were entered into a LASSO regression for selection. Those retained by LASSO were then included in a multivariate logistic regression model. Multivariate analysis identified the following independent risk factors for multidimensional frailty: Age ≥ 75 years (OR = 2.821; 95% CI: 1.671-4.761); female (OR = 2.279; 95% CI: 1.426-3.643); insomnia (OR = 2.147; 95% CI: 1.374-3.354); depressive symptoms (OR = 4.233; 95% CI: 2.629-6.816). Conversely, higher scores on activities of daily living (ADL) (OR = 0.952; 95% CI: 0.921-0.984) and greater social support (OR = 0.935; 95% CI: 0.901-0.971) were protective against multidimensional frailty. Conclusion: Multidimensional frailty is highly prevalent in hospitalized CHD patients and independently associated with psychosocial and functional factors. Early screening and integrated interventions targeting these determinants are essential to improve clinical outcomes.
