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: Older adults with multimorbidity experience fragmentation of care. Ensuring optimal use of healthcare services requires stratifying their need for integrated care. We aimed to map existing stratification tools for assessing older adults with multimorbidity in an integrated care context. Methods: We searched MEDLINE, Embase, PsycINFO, Cochrane Library, and CINAHL, and extracted definitions of population, concept, and context following the JBI Framework for Scoping Reviews. Results: We identified 17,689 articles of which 11 articles were included. Few stratification tools for this population exist and differ on scoring methods, domains and settings of use. Stratification is used for identifying older adults with multimorbidity to multidisciplinary teams or to case managers. Future research should develop stratification tools across sectors focused on the common risk factors of multimorbidity in older adults.
