Measuring Consumer-Reported Quality of Life Among Recipients of Publicly Funded Home- and Community-Based Services: Implications for Health Equity.
Article in Journal of aging and health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
ObjectivesDespite an increased policy focused on home- and community-based services (HCBS), little is known about their quality of life (QoL)-a key measure of person-centered care. This paper addresses this gap by measuring consumers' self-reported QoL and identifying factors associated with disparities in QoL.MethodsWe analyzed the 2015-2016 National Core Indicators-Aging and Disability survey for 3426 respondents in Minnesota, using factor analyses to identify latent QoL domains. Multivariable regression models identified predictors of QoL domains.ResultsFactor analyses identified three valid and reliable latent QoL domains: security, self-determination, and care experiences. Younger consumers with disabilities (versus consumers ≥65 years of age), minoritized racial/ethnic groups, consumers with hearing loss, without a spouse/domestic partner, and not living in consumer's own/family home reported significantly lower QoL in various domains (
