Associated factors and gender differences of falls in older adults with hypertension: a national cross-sectional survey.
Article in Frontiers in public health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Background: Falls have become a crucial public health problem among older adults, especially those with hypertension. However, the current understanding of the risk of falls among them is still insufficient. The purpose of this study was to investigate the factors associated with falls and their gender differences among older adults with hypertension in China. Methods: Based on the cross-sectional data of the Chinese Longitudinal Healthy Longevity Survey (CLHLS) 2018 database, this study defined 24 possible associated factors based on the five dimensions of the Health Ecology Model. Binary Logistic Regression Model was used to analyze the impact of each factor on falls among older adults with hypertension. Results: The prevalence rate of falls in older adults with hypertension in China was 22.60%. Falls are associated with a variety of factors. Specifically, gender, self-rated health, hearing impairment, stroke, instrumental activities of daily living (IADL) disability, basic activities of daily living (BADL) disability, exercise, fresh fruit and taste preference are significant associated factors for falls among older adults with hypertension. Among them, the effects of self-rated health, stroke and exercise on falls are only significant in female with hypertension. The effect of fresh fruit on falls was significant only in men with hypertension. Conclusion: The findings highlight that the current situation of falls among older adults with hypertension requires attention, necessitating comprehensive measures for prevention and control.
