Physical Function and Residential Relocation of Older Adults Living With Chronic Conditions.
Article in Journal of applied gerontology : the official journal of the Southern Gerontological Society, 2026. 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
Environmental Gerontology has shown that mobility difficulty can be a barrier to aging in place when the home environment is not physically accessible. However, difficulty may vary by underlying chronic conditions. Using data from a cohort of community-dwelling adults age 65 or older in the 2011-2019 National Health and Aging Trends Study, we found that mobility difficulty was associated with moving to housing with fewer environmental barriers. Mobility difficulty was not associated with moving to other destinations, such as housing with the same or more barriers, or nursing home. Those with dementia or cancer were more likely to move to a nursing home, and those with cancer were less likely to move to housing with the same or more barriers. However, having these chronic conditions did not change the relationship between mobility difficulty and relocation. These findings suggest that addressing mobility and reducing environmental barriers may promote aging in place.
