A Qualitative Study of the Effects of Opioids on Chronic Pain, Function, and Cognition in Community-Dwelling Older Adults.
Article in Journal of applied gerontology : the official journal of the Southern Gerontological Society, 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
Chronic pain is common with aging. Yet, little is known about the attitudes, beliefs, and experiences of older adults with chronic pain regarding opioids, particularly in regard to effects on daily functioning and cognition. This qualitative analysis employed semi-structured interviews in 25 community-dwelling older adults with chronic pain and current or recent prescription opioid use. Interviews focused on perceptions, beliefs, and experiences of living with chronic pain, use of prescription opioids, and the impact of opioids on pain control, cognition, and daily function. Older adults display adaptability and acceptance in living with chronic pain, desire person-centered pain care, approach the risks-benefits of opioids with regards to cognition differently, and perceive stigma as a barrier to effective partnership with clinicians.
