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

Aim: To describe and define a concept of confidence in the context of older people living with frailty, which is important to the worldwide healthy-ageing agenda preventing decline in independence and well-being. Design: Concept analysis informed by Walker and Avant's eight-stage approach. Methods: Electronic databases (MEDLINE, CINAHL and PsychINFO) from 1994-2018 were searched. Published studies exploring confidence and excerpts of papers referencing older people, frailty and confidence informed the concept analysis. Extracted attributes informed model case and additional case development. Appraisal of antecedents, consequences and empirical referents informed the final concept's construction. Results: Three overall defining attributes of confidence were identified in this concept analysis: physical, psychological and social. A central feature is personal control, influencing internal and external factors. These control factors can be enabling factors (positive factors) or dis-enabling factors (negative factors), affecting the frail older persons overall physical health and mental well-being.
