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

Objective: With China's rapidly aging population, institutional care for older adults is becoming increasingly common. Spiritual well-being has emerged as a key component of quality elderly care, contributing to emotional resilience, life satisfaction, and positive aging. This study explores the impact of exercise identity on the Spiritual well-being of older adults residing in nursing homes and the mediating roles of perceived social support and exercise behavior. Methods: A survey was conducted on 514 older adults residing in nursing homes using general demographic questionnaires, the Spirituality Index of Well-Being Scale, the Perceived Social Support Scale, the Physical Activity Rating Scale, and the Exercise Identity Scale. Results: The total score of Spiritual well-being among older adults residing in nursing homes was (32.76 ± 7.07). Significant positive correlations were found among exercise identity, perceived social support, exercise behavior, and Spiritual well-being. Perceived social support partially mediated the relationship between exercise identity and Spiritual well-being, with an indirect effect value of 0.237, accounting for 39.6% of the total effect (0.599). Exercise behavior also partially mediated the relationship between exercise identity and Spiritual well-being, with an indirect effect value of 0.201, accounting for 33.5% of the total effect (0.599). Conclusion: Perceived social support and exercise behavior have parallel mediating effects on the relationship between exercise identity and Spiritual well-being of older adults residing in nursing homes. These findings offer a theoretical foundation for developing targeted interventions aimed at enhancing spiritual well-being through improved exercise identity and supportive environments in institutional care settings.
