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

Background: Digital solutions can support healthier ageing and better functioning throughout life; the AGAPE project aimed to co-create and implement a digital ecosystem of services to promote Active and Healthy Ageing, with the involvement of Older adults (OAs) and their formal and informal caregivers. The project's co-creation methodology followed five phases: Pre-selection of devices; Focus groups and questionnaires; Workshops and Living Labs; Pre-Pilot; Pilot. Aim: The aim of this paper is to describe the first four phases of the project, including the results of the usability study (phases 3-4). Design and methods: Co-creation followed the YOUSE Toolbox of Active and Assisted Living projects for user-centred design. Phases 1-4 of the study were conducted in parallel in Italy, Portugal, Romania, to integrate feedback from all sites. To assess the usability and the level of stress related to technology usage (phases 3 and 4), the System Usability Scale (SUS) and the Technostress (TS) were administered, respectively. Results: Two hundred and eighty-two participants (Italy Conclusions: This paper presents a reproducible and measurable co-creation approach that has been successfully applied to develop different digital health services for AHA and rehabilitation.
