1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

The aging population reveals the need to develop self-care interventions that promote autonomy and well-being. The current systematic review aimed to assess the association between the implementation of structured home-based rehabilitation programs to promote self-care in older adults and health-related outcomes among people aged 60 years or older. Following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines, a systematic literature review was performed. Three electronic databases (MEDLINE, CINAHL and Psychology and Behavioral Sciences Collection) were searched. Randomized experimental studies, that implemented a home-based rehabilitation program to promote self-care in older adults, and were published between 2019 and 2024, were retrieved. Data on health-related outcomes were collected. Eight studies were included; all eight studies implemented a monitored, progressive and customized rehabilitation program. The studies varied greatly regarding the sample size, the duration of the intervention, the rehabilitation program implemented and the instruments used. The implementation of structured home-based rehabilitation programs may contribute to improve physical and psychological health-related outcomes among older adults by promoting functional capacity, self-care and knowledge.
