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

backgroundThis mixed-methods study explores older people's intention of institutional care and its contributing contextual factors, and the meaning given to their intention by older adults in the transitioning Chinese society.

methodsGuided by the extended Anderson model and frameworks of the ecological theory of aging, survey data collected from 1937 Chinese older adults were used. Transcripts from six focus group interviews were analyzed to incorporate the voices of the participants.

resultsCommunity environment and services, health services, financial services, and regional service organizations were related to the institutional care intention of older people. The qualitative analysis showed that the reported conflicting feelings about institutional care was driven by the lack of supporting resources and age-friendly environment. The findings of this study suggested that the reported intention of Chinese older adults for institutional care may not be an ideal choice but a compromise or, in some cases, a forced choice.

conclusionsRather than treating the stated institutional intention as a simple expression of older Chinese people's likes or desires, the intention of institutional care should be understood within a framework that fully considers the influence of psycho-social factors and contextual organizations.
