Association between 6-month changes in 4-m usual gait time and social function domain score among community-dwelling older adults: a secondary analysis of a community-based program.

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
[Purpose] In this study, we aimed to examine whether within-person changes in physical function are associated with changes in the social function domain score among community-dwelling older adults participating in a municipal community program. [Participants and Methods] A secondary analysis was conducted using longitudinal data of 191 older adults who completed baseline and 6-month follow-up assessments. The social function domain score was calculated using four items from the Eleven-Check questionnaire. Physical function was assessed using the Short Physical Performance Battery. In addition, handgrip strength, Timed Up and Go, and 4-m maximum-pace gait time tests were performed. Changes in each variable were calculated as the 6-month follow-up value minus the baseline value. In addition, Spearman's rank correlation and multiple linear regression analyses were performed. [Results] Changes in the 4-m usual gait time were significantly correlated with changes in the social function domain score. In a regression model adjusted for age and sex, changes in 4-m usual gait time were associated with changes in the social function domain score. The model explained 9.3% of the variance. [Conclusion] 6-month changes in 4-m usual gait time were associated with changes in the social function domain score among community-dwelling older adults.
