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.

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
backgroundThe objective of this study was to analyze the expenditures on medical expenses and its determinants using the Korean Retirement and Income Data conducted by the National Pension Research Institute.
methodsThis study utilized data from the Korean Retirement and Income Study from 2005 to 2013, which were compiled by the National Pension Research Institute. The t test and ANOVA were used to analyze the general characteristics and medical expenditures of subjects depending on the receipt of public pension, and logistic regression was used to identify the determinants of medical expenditures.
resultsThe results of this study indicated that households not receiving public pension are likely to spend more on medical expenses than those receiving public pension. The analysis results showed that gross household expenditures quintiles affected medical expenditures up to 4 times. Moreover, poor physical health was a stronger influence factor of medical expenditures than good physical health.
conclusionIt is necessary to prepare a pension policy that can guarantee a reasonable amount of a retirement pension to the retiree, provide health policy and financial support programs to medical services.
