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

People generally wish to return home after being evacuated due to disaster situations. Evacuation orders have now been lifted in the Fukushima region following the nuclear accident in 2011, and the Japanese government is promoting a return policy. However, many residents who wish to return home remain unable to and continue living in evacuation sites or other areas. Sixteen residents of Katsurao village were interviewed after evacuation orders were lifted in 2016 who have not yet returned. Concerns were cited regarding radiation, prolonged evacuation, health problems, buying a house in the evacuation area and schooling. The problems identified were primarily due to the rapid ageing and decline of the regional population, reflecting similar issues throughout Japan. In particular, health problems and intention to return were thought to be closely related. Over 10 y have passed since the evacuation, and many residents have experienced familial separation and divided living situations.
