Assessment of an automated telesurveillance system on the incidence of serious falls in nursing homes (TELEHPAD): Randomized controlled trial.
Article in JAR life, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Introduction: Early detection and management of falls is an important issue in nursing homes, and automated telesurveillance system (ATS) can help support these processes. The main aim of this study was to examine the impact of ATS on serious falls prevention in older adults (OA) living in Nursing Home (NH). Materials and methods: This was a prospective, multicenter, randomized clinical trial. It involved 213 OA, 104 in the intervention group (IG) and 109 in the control group (CG). Results: The OA had a mean age of 87.7 ± SD: 5.9 years, and were predominantly female (69.0 %). The annual incidence of serious falls was 0.37 ± SD: 0.76, respectively 0.24 ± SD: 0.53 and 0.49 ± SD: 0.92 in the IG and CG, Conclusions: The ATS EDAO detects falls that are not serious, enabling personalized secondary prevention programs to be initiated to prevent serious falls.
