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
In response to the aging population, an integrated care policy has been put forward and implemented in China. The key aspect of this policy is the reform of services within long-term care facilities, representing a significant shift and innovation. This study aims to explore the perceptions and experiences of integrated care among older residents living in long-term care facilities. A descriptive qualitative design was applied in our study. Utilizing a purposive sampling method, 18 older adults from 5 long-term care institutions in Shanghai, China were selected. Data were collected through semi-structured in-depth interviews from October 2022 to April 2023, continuing until data saturation was reached. Directed content analysis was applied to analyze the interview data, guided by the Fundamentals of Care (FoC) Framework. Five themes and 11 subthemes were identified, including (1) Policy level: positive attitude and negative feelings. (2) Physiological level: satisfied basic daily life, primary medical services accessibility and chronic care management enhancement needed. (3) Psychological level: need for psychological support and need for self-perception recognition. (4) Relationship level: enhancement of humanistic care and need for a family atmosphere. (5) Social level: interpersonal communication constrained by the times and inadequate social engagement. Strengthening the awareness and participation of older people in the integrated care policy, and fully meeting the diverse needs including advanced medical care, chronic disease management, personalized life care, psychological support, humanistic care and social engagement will contribute to the improvement of the policy, so as to better adapt the demographic shift.
