Factors Influencing Outcomes of a Telehealth-Based Physical Activity Program in Older Veterans Postdischarge.

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
Background: Hospital-to-home transitions are influenced by hospitalization factors, associated posthospital syndromes, and postdischarge health care application. The objective of this study was to examine how these factors influenced outcomes of a pilot intervention using Veterans Affairs Video Connect (VVC) to enhance function and physical activity in older adults posthospital discharge. Methods: Twenty-four older adults (mean age, 74 years) participated in a 6-month pilot VVC physical activity intervention designed to enhance functional ability, physical performance, and physical activity. Results: Participants with mild to moderate cognitive impairment had less improvement in activities of daily living (median, 0; IQR, 0 to 1) than those with no impairment (median, 0; IQR, -0.75 to 0; effect size [ES], -1.1 Conclusions: In a cohort of older adults undergoing a 6-month pilot VVC-based physical activity intervention posthospital discharge, improvements in mobility and disability were most likely in those who had no cognitive impairment and were not readmitted. Larger sample and qualitative investigations are necessary to optimize outcomes for those who meet these clinical profiles.
