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
Background: Self-neglect among older adults is a well-recognized public health issue. During the novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), older adults with disabilities may be at increased risk for self-neglect. This study aimed to assess the prevalence of self-neglect and associated factors among older adults with disabilities in Liaoning Province during the COVID-19 outbreak. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted from January 2021 to April 2021. A convenience sample of 230 older adults with disabilities filled out questionnaires that collected data on socioeconomic and demographic characteristics alongside data using the Barthel Index (BI), the Elder Self-Neglect Assessment (ESNA), the Geriatric Depression Scale-Short Form (GDS-SF), the Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support (MSPSS), and the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE). Results: The overall self-neglect rate was 86%. The study revealed that self-neglect correlates positively with the degree of disability ( Conclusion: During the COVID-19 outbreak, self-neglect has been a serious public health problem among older adults with disabilities. Lower monthly income, decreased physical function, depressive symptoms, and perceptions of poor social support contributed to self-neglect among older adults with disabilities.
