Prevalence of malnutrition and associated factors among the elderly population in Jiaxing City, China.
Article in Frontiers in nutrition, 2025. 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
Objective: Analysis on the nutritional status and its influencing factors of the elderly in care institutions in Jiaxing. Method: The Mini Nutritional Assessment (MNA) was employed to screen the risk of malnutrition among individuals aged 60 years and older residing in these institutions. The single-factor and multi-factor logistic regression models were utilized to analyze the influencing factors. Results: A total of 373 subjects were included in this survey, and the age group of 80-89 years is the largest, accounting for 50.40%, while the 60-69 years age group is the smallest, accounting for 9.12%. One hundred seventeen subjects were at risk of malnutrition, accounting for 31.37% of total subjects. Multivariate regression analysis showed that the risk of malnutrition among the elderly in privately run and publicly owned care institutions is 0.19 times that of those in publicly constructed and owned care institutions (95% CI: 0.07-0.52). The risk of malnutrition among the elderly with the ability to go out independently is 0.01 times that of those bedridden individuals (95% CI: 0.00-0.07). The risk of malnutrition among the elderly without peptic ulcer is 0.39 times that in the affected individuals (95% CI: 0.16-0.98). Conclusion: The screening results for malnutrition risk among the elderly individuals in care institutions indicate that the proportion of elderly individuals at risk of malnutrition is relatively high. The risk of malnutrition is particularly increased for bedridden individuals and for those suffering from peptic ulcers.
