Using Behavioural Skills Training with Healthcare Staff to Promote Greater Independence for People Living with Dementia: A Randomised Single-Case Experimental Design.

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
Approximately 72% of older adults in residential care have dementia and present with different levels of functioning. People living with dementia (PLwD) may not always be facilitated to independently carry out activities of daily living (ADLs) in care, increasing the likelihood of excess disability. This study incorporated Behavioural Skills Training (BST) to train healthcare staff how to increase opportunities for independence for PLwD by using task analyses and least-to-most (L-M) prompting procedures during ADLs. Three healthcare staff, two female and one male (mean age = 42.67, SD = 16.82), participated in the intervention. The What Works Clearinghouse (WWC) Single-Case Design Technical Documentation guided the study's design. A randomised single-case experimental (N-of-1) design was employed, using a multiple-baseline design (MBD) across participants (
