Validity assessment of oral health promotion activities targeting the older population for community care in South Korea: A Delphi study.
Article in Gerodontology, 2025. 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
objectiveThe purpose of this study was to establish an oral health activity assessment tool for older people and evaluate its validity.
backgroundTo provide reasonable and efficient oral health promotion services with limited medical resources, a tool including categories and items of oral health promotion activities for older people should be prepared. MATERIALS AND
methodsThe tool initially consisted of 76 items on oral health promotion activities for older people classified into assessment-performance-evaluation stages. Topics for each stage included general and oral health, daily health, oral health status, behaviour, and awareness. In addition, two Delphi surveys were conducted on 10 experts who met the selection criteria, and the final items were derived based on the review opinions.
resultsAs a result of the first and second Delphi surveys, the content validity for all items was ≥0.60 and the content validity index was ≥0.80. In the first survey, the degree of convergence in some items was 0-0.88. After modifying the contents according to expert opinions, the degree of convergence was improved from 0 to 0.50 in the second survey. The degree of agreement ranged from 0.75 to 1.00, indicating that experts agreed. Finally, a total of 65 items were derived.
conclusionA 65-item tool was derived through two Delphi surveys for the assessment of oral health activities for older people. The use of the tool developed in this study would likely contribute to better prevention of oral diseases and the promotion of oral health among older people.
