Article in Archives of public health = Archives belges de sante publique, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
backgroundFunctional disability significantly burdens healthcare services, negatively affecting older adults' social interaction and quality of life. This study aims to identify the association between functional disability and mental health, and examine the moderating effects of social participation and physical exercise on the association.
methodsThe data were drawn from 2018 wave of Chinese Longitudinal Healthy Longevity Survey, and ordinary least squares regression model was exploited to explore the association between functional disability and mental health.
resultsActivity of daily living (ADL) disability negatively predicted mini-mental state examination (MMSE) score. Furthermore, social participation and physical exercise moderated the association between ADL disability and MMSE score.
conclusionThe results highlight the importance of social participation and physical exercise for the older adults with ADL disability.
