Implementing reablement for community dwelling people with dementia: A formative evaluation using single-case experimental design.
Article in Dementia (London, England), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundReablement is recommended to maximise functioning in people with dementia, yet in Australia, is not routinely available. This study aimed to provide insight into the implementation and program outcomes of reablement in real-world practice for a person living with dementia.
methodsReablement was implemented for a client with dementia. In parallel, a formative mixed-methods pilot evaluation was performed, using single-case experimental A-B-A design (
resultsSingle-case experimental design outcomes indicated the program positively impacted the participant's physical functioning. Additionally, most routinely collected pre-post clinical measures demonstrated improvement. Intervention fidelity varied, with differences in length and client engagement.
conclusionImplementation of evidence-informed reablement has been shown to be feasible in real-world practice for a community-dwelling person living with dementia. Larger implementation trials are needed to build on preliminary outcomes to ultimately improve access to these important programs.
