1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

BACKGROUND AND

objectivesThis study examines the relationship between lifetime victimization and health in later life and asks whether the level of lifetime victimization is associated with an earlier onset of an IADL limitation. RESEARCH DESIGN AND

methodsUsing data from the Health and Retirement Study (N = 11,143), we construct 3 levels of lifetime victimization (none, monovictimization, and polyvictimization). We use Weibull accelerated failure time models to examine the relationship between the level of lifetime victimization and the onset of an IADL limitation.

resultsMonovictimization and polyvictimization were associated respectively with a 9% and 18% earlier time to onset of an IADL limitation compared with individuals who did not experience victimization. Additionally, polyvictimization respondents had an earlier onset of an IADL limitation compared toQ monovictimization respondents. DISCUSSION AND IMPLICATIONS: Lifetime victimization is a life course antecedent to IADL limitations in later life, especially among individuals who have experienced multiple types of victimization. Future research should examine resources that slow health declines among people who have experienced victimization.
