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

backgroundCreating a supportive environment for the health and well-being of children with disabilities is essential to enhancing their quality of life and promoting positive outcomes for families and society. In South Korea, children with disabilities face numerous structural and social challenges that threaten their well-being and lower their life satisfaction. This study aimed to examine the factors affecting life satisfaction among school-attending children with disabilities aged 19 years or younger in South Korea, using a framework based on the social determinants of health.

methodsA secondary data analysis was conducted using the 2022 Panel Survey of Disability and Life Dynamics by the Korea Disabled People's Development Institute. A total of 569 children were included. Variables were selected based on the five domains of the Healthy People 2030 framework: economic stability, education access and quality, health care access and quality, neighbourhood and built environment and social and community context. Hierarchical regression analysis was used to determine the influence of these factors on life satisfaction.

resultsChildren with disabilities in South Korea reported lower life satisfaction than other vulnerable groups, which also face constraints on health and well-being due to socioeconomic, cultural or environmental factors. Significant predictors of life satisfaction were functional limitations, parental depression, type of education, experience with learning accommodations, satisfaction with disability welfare services, family strength, peer attachment, subjective health and self-esteem.

conclusionsThis study highlights the importance of addressing the social determinants of health that shape the life satisfaction of children with disabilities in South Korea. Future research should broaden the scope to include diverse populations and contexts, thereby informing more inclusive and tailored strategies to promote their health and well-being.
