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
BACKGROUND/
objectivesThis study aimed to examine awareness and behaviors related to injury prevention in the home among community-dwelling older adults according to age and gender.
methodsIn this cross-sectional descriptive study, 299 adults aged ≥65 years who visited 10 senior welfare centers in Korea were included. Data were collected through structured face-to-face interviews using a questionnaire assessing general characteristics, awareness, and behaviors related to home injury prevention. Descriptive statistics, the chi-squared test, independent t-test, and one-way analysis of variance were used for data analysis.
resultsLevels of interest in home injuries and awareness of first aid differed significantly by age and gender. The possession of a home emergency kit and participation in regular health check-ups varied by age, while the intention to participate in injury-prevention education differed by gender. Overall, female participants demonstrated higher levels of injury-prevention behavior than male participants.
conclusionsOlder adults showed lower awareness and practice of specific home injury-prevention strategies, while women exhibited greater awareness and preventive behaviors than men. These findings suggest that tailored home injury-prevention interventions that consider age and gender characteristics may yield more effective and positive outcomes.
