Effects of a Comprehensive Intervention Program of Static-Dynamic Balance Training Combined with Reminiscence Therapy on the Level of Healthy Aging Among Older Adults in a Rural Community: A Randomized Controlled Trial.

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
Purpose: Healthy aging levels are generally low among rural older adults, yet the effects of combined static-dynamic balance training and reminiscence therapy on this population remain underexplored. This study evaluated the efficacy of a combined static-dynamic balance training and reminiscence therapy (SDBT-RT) program in promoting healthy aging in rural communities, with emphasis on both immediate and sustained outcomes. Patients and methods: A randomized, assessor-blinded, controlled trial with two parallel groups included 64 adults >60 years from rural Huzhou, China, randomized to intervention (n=32) and control (n=32) groups. The intervention group received a 12-week SDBT-RT program, conducted twice weekly: 40-minute reminiscence therapy plus 50-minute balance training in odd weeks, and 50-minute balance training alone in even weeks; controls received health education and exercise instruction. Healthy Aging Instrument (HAI), satisfaction, and feasibility (adherence, safety) were assessed at baseline (T0), post-intervention (T1), and 1-month follow-up (T2). Data analysis used repeated measures analysis of variance and a simple effect test. Results: The intervention group's total HAI score significantly increased from 111.03 ± 11.36 at baseline to 129.80 ± 11.30 at T1 and 130.63 ± 12.01 at T2 (all Conclusion: SDBT-RT effectively enhances healthy aging in rural older adults with high feasibility and sustained benefits, offering a promising intervention model in resource-limited rural settings.
