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

A three-stage strength-based meaning intervention (SMI) was developed in the present study, and its utility in facilitating the mental health of individuals with physical disabilities in low-income communities was tested. A randomized controlled and single-blind trial was adopted. A total of 50 qualified participants (mean age = 42.12, standard deviation = 8.68; 48% males; 26 for the intervention group, 24 for the control group) completed the pre-intervention test, post-intervention test, and three-month follow-up test. No significant difference was observed between the two groups at pre-intervention assessment . After intervention, the results in terms of strength knowledge, strength use, sense of meaning in life and mental health showed a significant improvement in the intervention group, with the changes maintained over three months except mental health. The differences in mental health between the post-intervention test and the three-month follow-up test were not significant in the intervention group. The results imply that the SMI model is a promising approach in promoting the mental health of individuals with physical disabilities in low-income communities as it promotes improved knowledge and use of strength and sense of meaning in life.
