E-ACTIVE AGING study protocol: Evaluating an exergame-based and multicomponent exercise program for community-dwelling older adults at risk of falling.
Article in Frontiers in physiology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07024004 (Effects of Active Exergames Program on Muscle Strength, Lower Limb Muscle Mass and Physical Fitness in Older Adults at Risk of Falls), which is not on this map. Cited by 1 paper, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.

Abstract
Background: Falls among older adults represent a major cause of morbidity and mortality, leading to decreased physical activity, loss of independence, and increased dependency. Individuals aged 60 years and older, particularly those with sensory deficits, are at greater risk. While conventional fall-prevention programs are widely implemented, innovative strategies such as active exergames have emerged as promising approaches to enhance balance and reduce fall risk. Objective: This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a supervised exergame-based multicomponent intervention compared to a traditional multicomponent training program in community-dwelling older adults at risk of falling. Methods: A randomized controlled trial with parallel groups and blinded assessment will be conducted among older adults (≥60 years) recruited from senior centers (SENAMA, Chile). Fifty-two participants will be randomly allocated to either an exergame group (n = 26), performing interactive full-body movements using the Nintendo Switch Expected Results: It is hypothesized that both interventions will improve functional and balance outcomes, with the exergame-based program potentially promoting greater adherence and superior overall effects.
