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

objectivesto reveal Primary Health Care professionals' experience regarding the approach to sexuality among older adults.

methodsthis is exploratory research with a qualitative approach, carried out with 40 healthcare professionals, including physicians and nurses, who participated in a semi-structured interview. The interviews were recorded and analyzed using the thematic content analysis technique.

resultsthe data were analyzed and grouped into five empirical categories: Descriptions of sexuality; Difficulties in addressing sexuality; Importance of addressing sexuality among older adults; Professional indicated to address sexuality; and Older adults' perceptions about sexuality according to healthcare professionals. FINAL CONSIDERATIONS: the study demonstrated that professionals face difficulties in addressing sexuality among older adults, which reinforces the stereotype of asexuality. Therefore, it is necessary to seek to address this issue in care planning actions and seek to overcome related cultural and social barriers.
