Age-Friendly Research: A Pilot Exploration of Tools to Facilitate Inclusion of Older Adults in Research.
Article in Gerontology & geriatric medicine. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Older adults have a high burden of chronic diseases but are underrepresented in research. Researchers with geriatric or gerontology expertise have developed frameworks to recruit and retain older adults but these have not been widely adopted by the broader research community. We developed or adapted seven Age-Friendly research tools and invited research team members with no aging training to pilot test them. We consented 21 research team members and asked them to share strengths, limitations, and areas for improvement for each tool for up to 4 months via REDCap surveys. Sixteen participants (76%) completed at least one survey. The communication guide and Age-Friendly research checklist were the most utilized tools among participants. Key barriers to implementation were lack of time and lack of age-appropriate populations. Facilitators of tool implementation were accessibility and ease of use, webinar training, and supportive teams. Participants found the tools valuable to encourage Age-Friendly research studies. Adoption of Age-Friendly research tools could improve the experience for research team members and older adults alike.
