Prevalence and predictors of potentially inappropriate medication in older adults hospitalized with cardiovascular disease.
Article in Journal of family medicine and primary care, 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
Introduction: The use of potentially inappropriate medications (PIMs) is a significant concern among older adults with cardiovascular disease (CVD) as it can lead to adverse drug events, increased hospitalizations, and poorer health outcomes. Despite the known risks, limited evidence exists on predictors of PIM use in this population. Objective: To determine the prevalence and predictors of PIM use in the older adult patients hospitalized with CVD. Methods: This prospective cross-sectional study included 250 older adult patients (mean age 69.03 ± 5.76 years) with the CVD, admitted to the cardiology/medicine department of a tertiary care hospital. PIMs were identified as per Beers criteria Results: The PIM prescription rate was 62.4% ( Conclusion: PIM prevalence in older adults with CVD is very high, and females with CVD have emerged as a potential PIM indicator. The study also indicates a lack of awareness toward Beers criteria
