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 examine the relationship between care networks and perceived happiness in older immigrants who live in their own homes in Australia.
methodsA cross-sectional survey was conducted with 101 participants aged 65-97 years and from seven cultural groups. Participants completed measures of perceived happiness, care network structure, function and adequacy, and demographics. Data were analysed using correlations, analyses of variance and multiple regression analyses.
resultsFamily support, giving and receiving emotional and instrumental support and satisfaction with care networks and physical health were significantly correlated with perceived happiness. Regression analyses identified satisfaction with care networks, satisfaction with physical health and receiving instrumental support as significant predictors of happiness, explaining 41% of the variance in happiness.
conclusionsThe findings emphasised the importance of instrumental support from family and formal community aged care services, and satisfaction with care networks to perceived happiness in older immigrants. The study suggested improving communication between older immigrants, their family and service providers to effectively support older immigrants to age well in Australia.
