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
introductionResilience describes good adaptation to adversity and is a significant factor for well-being in old age. Initial studies indicate a high relevance of social resources. So far, only few studies have investigated resilience patterns in the elderly population. Therefore, the present study aims to investigate sociodemographic and social correlates of resilience in a large population-based sample aged 65 years and older.
methodsAnalyses were conducted on n = 2410 people aged 65 years and older from the follow-up survey of the LIFE-Adult-Study. The survey included the variables resilience (Resilience Scale - RS-11), social support (ENRICHD Social Support Inventory - ESSI), and social network (Lubben Social Network Scale - LSNS-6). The association of sociodemographic and social variables with resilience was analyzed using multiple linear regression analysis.
resultsThe age of 75 years and older was associated with lower resilience compared with the age of 65-74 years. Further, widowed marital status was related to higher resilience. Better social support and a larger social network were significantly associated with higher resilience. No association was found for gender and education. DISCUSSION: The results reveal sociodemographic correlates of resilience in the elderly population that can help identify at-risk groups with lower resilience. Social resources are significant in older age for resilient adaptation and represent a starting point for deriving preventive measures. Social inclusion of older people should be promoted to strengthen resilience in this population and provide favorable conditions for successful aging.
