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 present study examined the reliability and validity of the Hebrew version of the Age-Friendly Cities and Communities Questionnaire (AFCCQ-IL). The present study was conducted in all four Israeli cities, acknowledged as age-friendly during the time of the study in June-July 2023, namely: Tel Aviv-Jaffa, Herzliya, Kfar Saba, and Jerusalem. A total of 223 Hebrew speakers over the age of 65 participated in the study. Structure validity was confirmed via confirmatory factor analysis and reliability was established. Slight dissatisfaction was noted regarding respect and social inclusion. There was variability across the four cities with Jerusalem fairing worse than the other three cities. The findings are of relevance for urban planners and policy stakeholders.
