The functional health needs of older persons in custody: A rapid review.
Review in Journal of forensic and legal medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
introductionThe number of older persons in custody is increasing and older incarcerated individuals have higher functional healthcare needs and higher healthcare costs. Consideration of available measures and interventions to address functional decline, are therefore imperative given the importance of disability to healthcare spending. PURPOSE: To identify the existing literature describing the functional health needs of older incarcerated individuals.
methodsThis rapid review synthesized existing literature on the functional health of older incarcerated individuals. Three electronic databases and two correctional service health-related journals were searched. Bibliographic searches of seminal articles and key authors were conducted for thoroughness.
resultsFifteen articles were retained in the final analysis. The methods of the included studies were heterogenous. Consideration of basic self-care (activities of daily living) and functional mobility were the primary ways of capturing functional health. The concept of 'Prison ADLs' emerged and measured the unique aspects of correction-specific functional activities.
conclusionsThis review identified the existing literature on how the functional health of older incarcerated persons is operationalized and measured, and how it is considered within this unique context. The concept of 'Prison ADLs' provides insight into the functional experiences of this population. Additionally, performance across PADLs typically declines before abilities across traditional ADLs.
