An Exploratory Study of Health-related Quality of Life and Care Experiences in Older Adults with Inflammatory Bowel Disease.
Article in Journal of the Canadian Association of Gastroenterology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Canada has one of the highest rates of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), with older adults as the fastest-growing group of individuals affected. This exploratory mixed methods study aimed to understand perceived health-related quality of life and care experiences in older adults with IBD. Participants greater than 60 years of age, who were diagnosed with IBD, and who lived in Saskatchewan, Canada were invited to participate in both an online survey and telephone interview. Seventy-three respondents completed the survey, and 18 participants were interviewed. Most individuals were diagnosed before age 60, believed their IBD was well controlled, believed their current treatment was useful, and were satisfied with their care. Individuals also reported a moderate health-related quality of life. However, collaborative management of IBD care between providers and older adults with IBD was identified as an area with room for improvement. Strategies to enhance disease self-management and engaged chronic illness care are critical.
