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

Increasing difficulties in the use of healthcare services after the COVID-19 outbreak is a major concern as ensuring access to healthcare services is a primary health policy goal. The aim of this study was to examine the impacts of public perceptions regarding COVID-19 related public health measures on older adults' experience of unmet healthcare needs in Korea. A total of 1961 participants from the Korea Health Care System Performance, over the age of 65, were included in the analyses. Three different logistic regression models were used to assess the impact of public perceptions - understanding, trust and satisfaction- regarding COVID-19 public health measures on unmet healthcare needs. Our results show that a poor understanding of public health measures was associated with higher odds of unmet healthcare needs among Korean older adults (OR:2.65, 95%CI: 1.79-3.94). However, trust and satisfaction of public health measures were not related to unmet healthcare needs. Our findings suggest that the importance of effective risk communication to facilitate better understand quarantine polices rather than emphasizing trust or satisfaction over public health measure.
