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: This study aims to investigate the current situation of social frailty among older adults with type 2 diabetes, and to analyze the associated factors, in order to provide a scientific basis for the clinical formulation of precise nursing intervention measures. Methods: From February to May 2026, a convenience sample of 334 older adults with type 2 diabetes admitted to the Endocrinology Department of a Grade A Level III hospital in Shandong Province was selected as the study subjects. Data were collected using a demographic questionnaire, the HALFT, GDS-5, AIS, and APGAR scales. SPSS 26.0 was used to perform descriptive statistics, univariate analysis, Spearman's correlation analysis, and binary logistic regression. Results: The prevalence of social frailty among older adults with type 2 diabetes was 26.3%. Univariate analysis revealed that age, educational level, marital status, monthly household income, residence, living alone, employment status, medical payment method, fall in the past year, diabetic complications, diabetic comorbidities, number of medications, physical frailty, exercise frequency, depression, sleep, and level of family support were significantly associated with social frailty ( Conclusion: Social frailty among older adults with type 2 diabetes is at a moderately high level. Advanced age, living alone, unemployment, depression, and physical frailty are factors associated to social frailty. Healthcare providers should conduct early screening and implement personalized interventions for high-risk individuals to improve patients' social functioning, support glycemic control, and promote healthy aging.
