Smart Technology for Aging and Reducing Disability (STAReD): Study protocol for a randomized pragmatic clinical trial.
Article in Contemporary clinical trials, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundThere is a critical need to improve quality of life for community-dwelling older adults with disabilities. Prior research has demonstrated that a smart, in-home sensor system can facilitate aging in place for older adults living in independent living apartments with care coordination support by identifying early illness and injury detection. Self-management approaches have shown positive outcomes for many client populations. Pairing the smart, in-home sensor system with a self-management intervention for community-dwelling older adults with disabilities may lead to positive outcomes.
methodsThis study is a prospective, two-arm, randomized, pragmatic clinical trial to compare the effect of a technology-supported self-management intervention on disability and health-related quality of life to that of a health education control, for rural, community-dwelling older adults. Individuals randomized to the self-management study arm will receive a multidisciplinary (nursing, occupational therapist, and social work) self-management approach coupled with the smart-home sensor system. Individuals randomized to the health education study arm will receive standard health education coupled with the smart-home sensor system. The primary outcomes of disability and health-related quality of life will be assessed at baseline and post-intervention. Generalizable guidance to scale the technology-supported self-management intervention will be developed from qualitatively developed exemplar cases.
conclusionThis study has the potential to impact the health and well-being of rural, community-dwelling older adults with disabilities. We have overcome barriers including recruitment in a rural population and supply chain issues for the sensor system. Our team remains on track to meet our study aims.
