Factors associated with life-space mobility in older adults with chronic respiratory disease: IMIAS study.
Article in Frontiers in rehabilitation sciences, 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
Introduction: Life space mobility (LSM) reflects overall function, and a reduction in LSM can limit activity, participation, and quality of life in older adults with chronic respiratory diseases (CRD). Existing research has not fully addressed factors associated with LSM. This study examined demographic, clinical, financial, social, and environmental factors associated with LSM in older adults living with CRD and compared characteristics of those with restricted versus unrestricted LSM. Method: Participants completed the Life-Space Assessment (LSA) as the primary outcome, along with questionnaires collecting demographic, financial, social, environmental, and clinical data. LSA scores ranged from 0-120, with a cutoff of ≤ 60 used to identify restricted LSM. LSM groups (restricted vs unrestricted) were contrasted using chi-square tests and t-tests. Factors associated with LSM were analyzed using both simple linear and multiple linear. Results: Among 223 CRD participants (103 restricted LSM, 120 unrestricted), groups differed in demographics (study site, sex, and education), all financial variables ( Conclusion: LSM is a multifactorial factor associated with socio-demographic and functional factors in older adults with CRD.
