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

backgroundAddiction and violence issues in residential care facilities pose significant health risks for residents. Addiction and violence are often closely linked. Preventive and health-promoting approaches offer potential for effectively addressing both problems.

objectiveThe aim of the "Prävention Kreativ!" (Creative prevention!) project was to promote the health of older people in residential care facilities using an innovative approach to addiction and violence prevention. To this end, complementary socio-artistic and mentally oriented group activities were developed, tested and their effectiveness examined.

methodsThe article presents the results of the accompanying evaluation in four nursing homes. The study is based on a mixed methods design with participant observation, (partially) standardized surveys, interviews and focus groups.

resultsThe results show positive effects in several prevention-related dimensions, most pronounced in the dimensions of well-being and group feeling/togetherness, followed by the dimensions of mental activity and physical activity. The programs developed promote resilience as an overarching goal of addiction and violence prevention.

conclusionIt is evident that mentally oriented and socio-artistic programs have complementary effects and together strengthen protective factors against addiction and violence. The results underscore the relevance of resource-oriented prevention approaches that holistically promote emotional stability, social belonging and cognitive and physical activation.
