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
Objective: Guided by Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs, this study explored the impact of home-based social support services on the well-being of older adults in Turkey. Methods: A qualitative descriptive design was employed with 63 participants, including 25 older adults, 23 caregivers/family members, and 15 professionals from four major cities. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and analyzed using MAXQDA 2024. Results: Home-based services were found to enhance both physical and psychological well-being. Nonetheless, chronic health conditions limited daily activities and social engagement. Older adults who maintained regular interactions with family, friends, and professionals demonstrated greater emotional resilience and strengthened social relationships. Discussion: Strengthening collaboration between families and professionals in home-based care is essential to improve older adults' well-being and promote active aging. The findings underscore the need for inclusive, needs-oriented approaches in gerontological social work and aging policies.
