Adaptive behavior in older adults according to age and schooling.
Article in European journal of translational myology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Adaptability is an important aspect of human behavior that determines the successful accomplishment of a task. The objective to study was to compare the patterns of adaptive behavior (AB) in older adults of both sexes according to age range and schooling. A cross-sectional descriptive (comparative) study was designed on 65 older adults (30 males and 35 females) of the Maule region (Chile). The sample was non-probabilistic. The age range was 70 to 85 years. Weight and height were evaluated and Body Mass Index (BMI) was calculated. A scale of self-perception of AB in older adults was applied. BMI in males was 29.5±3.9kg/m2 and in females was 28.4±5.0kg/m2. The AB values in males were 150.0±13.0 points and in females 57.0±15.0 points (p<0.05). The values of AB by schooling were: In males: High School Education 142.3± 11.5 points and Secondary Education 151.6± 14.6 points (p<0.05). In females: High School 149.6± 15.2 points and Secondary Education 159.8± 15.1 points (p<0.05). This study found that females performed better in AB, specifically in self-care, home life, self-direction, and socialization than their male counterparts; in addition, older adults of both sexes with higher education had better scores in AB than those with secondary education.
