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
The thought of living in a nursing home may be disheartening as long-term care establishments have been poorly perceived for decades. The government oversight for quality of care in long-term care homes (LTCH) has resulted in persistent shortcomings when it comes to residents' well-being and health. The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic both exacerbated and unveiled long-standing issues regarding the treatment of older adults. Public perceptions about quality of care provided in LTCH declined during the pandemic. With magnification focused on organizational issues in LTCH, future care receivers expressed firm reluctance to consider residence in such facilities. Understanding of older adults' perspectives on LTCH is essential for tailoring care practices and policies. In this study we conducted 2 rounds of interviews with community-dwelling older adults aged 60 or over to better understand their perceptions of LTCH. The narrative data were analyzed using found poetry as an artistic inquiry. Six poems were composed, combining participants' words into one poetic voice-addressing themes such as death, isolation, ongoing health care challenges and private care. Found poetry allowed for salient words to emerge, creating space for nuanced expression of emotions. The combination of multiple voices added to the depth of the poems, which were grounded in the participants' reality.
