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
objectivesTo investigate the risk factors for major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) and rehospitalization in older adults with non-ST-elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTE-ACS) within one year after discharge.
methodsThis single-center prospective cohort study enrolled 528 patients, who were categorized into robust, pre-frail, and frail groups based on the FRAIL scale. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to identify factors influencing frailty or pre-frailty in these patients. Multivariate Cox regression analysis was performed to assess the factors associated with MACCE and rehospitalization in these patients and examine the prognostic differences among subgroups.
resultsThe prevalence of frailty was 11.4%, and pre-frailty was 51.9%. Frailty was found to be an independent risk factor for MACCE (HR = 2.193, 95%CI 1.111-4.326, P = 0.024) and rehospitalization (HR = 1.906, 95%CI 1.031-3.522, P = 0.040) in older adults with NSTE-ACS. Subgroup analysis revealed that the old-old frailty group had a higher risk of MACCE compared to the old-old non-frailty group (HR = 2.389, 95%CI 1.072-5.322, P = 0.033), while no significant difference in MACCE risk was observed between the young-old frailty group and the old-old frailty group. The comorbid frailty group had a higher risk of rehospitalization than the comorbid non-frailty group (HR = 1.884, 95%CI 1.113-3.190, P = 0.018), but no significant difference in rehospitalization risk was found between the non-comorbid frailty group and the comorbid frailty group.
conclusionsFrailty is an independent risk factor for MACCE and rehospitalization in older adults with NSTE-ACS. Subgroup analysis further suggests that frailty maybe have greater impact on MACCE and rehospitalization in this population.
