Life Satisfaction, Self-Care Ability, and Loneliness in Older Adults: A Descriptive and Correlational Survey.
Article in Public health nursing (Boston, Mass.). 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
objectiveThis study aimed to determine the relationship between life satisfaction, self-care ability, and loneliness in older adults. MATERIALS AND
methodsThis descriptive-correlational study was conducted on voluntary participants aged 65 years and above who lived in North Cyprus. Personal information form, loneliness scale for elderly, satisfaction with life scale and exercise of self-care agency scale were used for data collection.
resultsOlder adults in our study had moderate levels of life satisfaction and self-care ability and the level of loneliness was at acceptable levels. Besides, the life satisfaction of the participants was positively correlated with self-care ability and negatively correlated with the level of loneliness.
conclusionThe psychosocial needs of older adults might be evaluated, and social support systems might be enhanced within the context of primary healthcare services. Besides, nurses might play an effective role in planning elderly care by taking the importance of multidisciplinary approaches into consideration.
