Innovations in geriatric care: leveraging technology to meet the needs of an aging world, a narrative review.
Review in The Journal of the Egyptian Public Health Association, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
The rapid global increase in the older adult population presents unprecedented challenges and opportunities for healthcare systems worldwide. This demographic shift is accompanied by a growing prevalence of chronic conditions such as cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, dementia, and other geriatric syndromes, underscoring the urgent need for innovative, age-sensitive healthcare solutions. Traditional healthcare models often fall short in addressing the complex, multifactorial needs of older adults, highlighting the need for a transformative approach to care delivery and management that integrates personalization, continuity, and technological innovation. This article is a narrative review that synthesizes recent literature published within the last ten years, drawing from PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and Google Scholar to explore cutting-edge advancements in geriatric care, with a focus on telemedicine, mobile health (mHealth), artificial intelligence (AI), robotics, and wearable technologies. These innovations offer promising avenues to improve healthcare accessibility, enhance patient outcomes, and alleviate the burden on caregivers. For instance, telemedicine facilitates remote consultations, reducing hospital visits and ensuring continuity of care for individuals in remote or underserved areas. mHealth applications empower older adults to actively manage their health, monitor chronic conditions, and stay connected with caregivers. Robotics and AI-driven systems provide physical support, cognitive stimulation, and personalized care planning, thereby enhancing independence and emotional well-being. However, successfully integrating these technologies into geriatric care requires addressing several challenges, including technical limitations, data privacy concerns, and disparities in digital literacy. A major hurdle lies in ensuring that these solutions are user-friendly and tailored to the diverse physical and cognitive needs of older adults.
