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: To explore a definition of healthspan that based on actual situation of veterans is of significance for improving their health status and life quality. Methods: This was a retrospective study. Based on the medical data of veterans from the Chinese PLA General Hospital. Total of 1,421 subjects were enrolled to this study, among which 441 deceased cases were further analyzed. The indicators of healthspan of the subjects was calculated from four dimensions (the status of chronic diseases, physical function, social function and psychological function). The risk factors for death were analyzed in a population cohort from 2008 to 2021 (including 763 subjects, among which 372 were deceased). Results: The average lifespan and adjusted healthspan of the subjects were 93.3 years and 75.1 years, respectively. The four dimensions of healthspan were: adjusted healthspan without chronic diseases was 76.3 years, social function-related healthspan was 88.8 years, physical function-related healthspan was 91.5 years, and psychological function-related healthspan was 92.7 years. By analyzing the cohort in 2008, it was inferred that the main risk factors for the death of veterans were poor nutritional status, renal function injury, high blood pressure, high blood sugar, and aging. Conclusions: This study proposed four dimensions related to "healthspan" for Chinese veterans (adjusted healthspan without chronic diseases, physical function-related healthspan, social function-related healthspan, and psychological function-related healthspan). Besides, poor nutritional status, renal function injury, and high blood pressure were the most important risk factors affecting the death of veterans.
