The association of the SIRT6 rs117385980 variant with frailty and longevity: an exploratory study.

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
Frailty, a common geriatric syndrome, is characterized by diminished physiological reserves and heightens the risk of adverse health events, including falls, hospitalizations, and mortality. Prevalence of frailty is increasing in populations by age. Sirtuin 6 (SIRT6) plays a pivotal role in energy metabolism, inflammation, DNA repair, oxidative stress, and fibrosis. Despite numerous studies investigating the functions of SIRT6, the role of its genetic variations in frailty remains poorly understood. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between SIRT6 SNP rs117385980 (C > T) and frailty syndrome. This study included samples from a cohort of older adults in Birjand, Iran, comprising 227 subjects, aged 60-90 years divided according to frailty status. Allele and genotype frequencies of the SIRT6 rs117385980 variant were analyzed in all participants. Results of the study indicated the increased presence of non-frail and pre-frail individuals compared to the frail group. Among individuals aged 60-69, 70-79, and 80-90 years, the frequency of the heterozygous CT genotype demonstrated a declining trend with advancing age (p = 0.07). Our findings suggest that the presence of rs117385980 T allele was decreased in older subjects but increased with robustness suggesting a diverse effect. Further studies with larger sample sizes and Dates of death data are warranted to confirm these preliminary findings.
