Participatory research approaches in long-term care facilities for older adults: a meta-ethnography.
Review in International journal of qualitative studies on health and well-being, 2024. 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
purposeThere is growing interest in the potential of participatory research approaches to democratize research, empower participants and contribute to targeted health and social care. Participatory research approaches are emphasized in ethical and funding applications regarding patient and public involvement; however, less is known about their use in long-term care facilities for older adults. This meta-ethnography seeks to provide an increased understanding and novel conceptualization of participatory research approaches in long-term care facilities for older adults.
methodsA meta-ethnography was used to synthesize qualitative literature on participatory research approaches in long-term care facilities for older adults. In total, 1,736 articles were screened at title and abstract level, 35 studies were eligible for full-text review and 10 articles were included.
resultsThe following third-order constructs were identified as salient to the conceptualization and use of participatory research approaches in long-term care facilities for older adults: 1) participatory backdrops, 2) collaborative places, 3) seeking common ground and solidarity, 4) temporal considerations, and 5) empowerment, growth, and cultural and social change.
conclusionThis meta-ethnography contributes a novel conceptualization and six recommendations to enhance the design and implementation of participatory research approaches as democratic spaces of exchange and collaboration for older adults.
