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

introductionDigital technology can be effective in providing personalised healthcare in contexts of ageing societies and increasing international migration trends. However, the literature is scarce and unsystematic, considering healthy ageing in migrant populations. This knowledge gap delays the development of interventions, policies and technology that are inclusive of the healthcare needs and limitations in older migrants. We aim to map the scientific literature addressing structural, psychological, technical and ethical determinants to adoption, use and effectiveness of digital technology for healthy ageing in migrants. We aim to uncover major challenges, highlight solutions and derive an agenda for future research. METHODS AND ANALYSIS: We plan a scoping review of peer-reviewed articles published in English, German and Spanish after 2010 without a geographical limitation. We will perform the review across specialised and interdisciplinary databases (EBSCO, IEEE Xplore, IET Digital Library, PsycINFO, PubMed, Scopus and Web of Science) and manage articles at Covidence.org. Our review will adhere to the Cochrane and Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses-Scoping Review guidelines for conducting and reporting reviews. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: No primary data will be collected, and therefore, ethical approval is not required.The results of this scoping review will be published in a peer-reviewed outlet and presented at conferences. A shiny web application will accompany the publication.
