Frailty and nursing care demand in hospitalized older adults: a cross-sectional study.
Article in Revista latino-americana de enfermagem, 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
to analyze the relation between nursing care demand and frailty condition and markers in hospitalized older adults. analytical cross-sectional study with a sample of 400 older adults. Data collection used a sociodemographic questionnaire, frailty phenotype tests, and a nursing care complexity assessment scale. Fisher's exact test, Kruskal-Wallis test and Dunn's test were applied, considering statistical significance for p≤0.05. there was a predominance of pre-frail (48.7%), followed by frail (35.8%) and non-frail individuals(15.5%). Most frail older adults required high-dependency nursing care (44.8%). The minimum nursing care demand was 80.6% for non-frail, 60.5% for pre-frail, and 14% for frail older adults. Frail older adults required higher nursing care level than the non-frail in the areas: mental state, oxygenation, motility, ambulation, elimination, and therapy (p<0.001). There was association between minimal to intensive nursing care demand and reduced hand grip strength (p<0.001), reduced gait speed (p<0.001), fatigue/exhaustion (p<0.001), reduced physical activity level (p<0.001), and unintentional weight loss (p<0.019). higher nursing care demand was associated with worse frailty condition and markers. Frailty assessment is indispensable to trace specific needs and support nursing care planning.
