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
Objective: Anxiety is a serious psychiatric illness in older adult people. Activities of daily living and social participation are important factors influencing anxiety in older adult people. Using social participation as a mediating variable, this study explored the influence of activities of daily living on anxiety in older adult people to provide scientific evidence for improving the psychological health of older adult people. Methods: A multistage stratified random sampling method was used in this study to recruit older adult people. T tests and variance analysis were used for single factor analysis, and a multiple linear regression model was used for multifactor analysis. Pearson correlation analysis was used to study the correlation between activities of daily living and social participation and anxiety. The Process program was used to perform the bootstrap test. Results: The mean anxiety score of the interviewed older adult individuals was 3.028 ± 4.606 points, and 28.66% of the older adult individuals had anxiety. There was a statistically significant difference in the anxiety scores of older adult people across sex, age, marital status, education level, and health insurance status ( Conclusion: Activities of daily living and social participation are important factors affecting anxiety in older adult people. Health education should be increased to enhance the physical activity of older adult people to improve their activities of daily living, create a good atmosphere for their social participation, improve their motivation for and continuity of social participation.
