Potential effectiveness of an ICOPE-based long-term care intervention program for old patients with disabilities in nursing homes: protocol for a mixed methods study.

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
Background: With global population aging, functional disability has become a major public health and social care challenge. The integrated care model, centered on intrinsic capacity, aims to optimize functional abilities and improve health outcomes through systematic interventions. This approach offers innovative insights into long-term care for old patients with disabilities in institutional settings. Aims: To explore the effectiveness of an "Integrated Care for Older People (ICOPE)-Based Long-Term Care Intervention Program" compared to a control group and to assess participants' perceptions of the program. Methods: This mixed-methods study will employ an explanatory sequential design, starting with a quantitative evaluation using a randomized controlled trial (RCT), followed by a supplementary qualitative study. The old patients with disabilities will be randomly allocated in a 1:1 ratio into the intervention group or the control group. The old patients with disabilities in the intervention group will participate in a 12-week "ICOPE-Based Long-Term Care Intervention Program," and in the control group will maintain their routine life and standard care practices. Participant outcomes in both conditions will be assessed at pre-intervention (T Discussion: This study will assess the effectiveness of an "ICOPE-Based Long-Term Care Intervention Program" for old patients with disabilities in nursing homes. If effective, it could provide a feasible and structured approach to improving long-term care quality in institutional settings. Trial registration: Identifier, ChiCTR2400094580.
