Correlation Between the Dementia Assessment Sheet for Community-Based Integrated Care System-21 Scores and Criteria for Determination of the Daily Life Independence Level of Older Adults With Dementia Using the Diagnosis Procedure Combination Database.
Article in Geriatrics & gerontology international, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
aimThis study aimed to assess the validity of the criteria for determination of the daily life independence level of older adults with dementia (CDED) in the diagnosis procedure combination (DPC) database, compared with the dementia assessment sheet for community-based integrated care system (DASC-21), to promote the use of CDED in DPC data for clinical and policy research on in-patients.
methodsA validation study was conducted using a DPC database and medical records. Data from patients aged ≥ 65 years hospitalized at Tokyo Metropolitan Geriatric Hospital and the Institute of Gerontology were extracted. The CDED scores range across five levels of dementia severity, and their validity was confirmed using the DASC-21 as a reference standard. The association between both scales was assessed using descriptive statistics and a generalized linear model.
resultsData from 9401 patients were analyzed. As CDED scores increased, age, Charlson Comorbidity Index, and frailty risk increased, while activities of daily living scores decreased. Additionally, higher CDED scores were associated with higher mean DASC-21 scores, indicating worsening cognitive and functional status. A generalized linear regression model with a Gaussian link function showed that DASC-21 scores significantly increased with higher CDED scores (CDED 1: 1.19, CDED 2: 1.48, CDED 3: 1.64, CDED 4: 1.84, and CDED M: 1.80; p < 0.001).
conclusionsThe CDED reliably assessed dementia severity and showed a strong association with the DASC-21, reflecting dementia progression. It is useful for patient assessment and policy research on dementia.
