Barriers to Accessing Care and Support Services for Older Immigrants and Immigrants with Dementia in Finland: Perspectives of Professional Social and Health Care Providers.
Article in Journal of cross-cultural gerontology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Older people's immigration to a different country can place them in a vulnerable situation. Research on the legal rights and access to justice for older immigrants and immigrants with dementia seeking care and support is scarce in Finland. This study addresses this gap in the research and employs semi-structured qualitative interviews with professionals offering services to this target group. Inductive and deductive qualitative content analysis approaches were used to analyze the data. The themes created from the data were analyzed from the perspective of an Elder Law theory, namely, Doron's Multidimensional Model of Elder Law. According to the findings of this study, the major challenges to accessing care and support include linguistic barriers, lack of digital skills, lack of information and knowledge, loneliness, and cultural differences. Some of the strategies that can be adopted to address these challenges include developing culturally sensitive services, dissemination of information about the available services in different languages and employing more bilingual staff.
