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

In this commentary, we first briefly review the significant utilities of household and living arrangement projections and the main types of methods for conducting household projections. In the second and third sections, we summarize basic ideas, data needed, assessments and applications of ProFamy extended cohort-component methods/software for households and living arrangement projections; and we emphasize the importance to extend the ProFamy methods and software from deterministic to probabilistic households and living arrangement projections. In section 4, we demonstrate that the ProFamy approach provides an adequate and highly feasible modelling framework to extend probabilistic households and living arrangement projections (PHPs), in which the population size/structure projection outcomes are in consistence with those of probabilistic population projections (PPPs) released by United Nations Population Division (UNPD). In the last Section, we discuss and recommend applying the user-friendly R package DemoRates of ProFamy software to estimate rural/urban (or race)-sex-age-specific standard schedules and the demographic summary measures, to conduct analyses and projections, such as single-parent households, caregivers, and care needs/costs for disabled older adults, age-friendly housing and households-based energy demands, etc. for healthy aging and sustainable development studies. Finally, we discuss the prospects of our ongoing international collaborative research project to substantially extend ProFamy cohort-component method from deterministic into probabilistic households and living arrangement projection (PHPs). As compared with ProFamy deterministic projection method, the PHPs produces a lot of additional outcomes of probabilistically projected households and living arrangements in 2021-2100 with uncertainty intervals that are crucial for healthy aging and sustainable development studies.
