Perspectives: How to Apply Motivational Interviewing for Older Adult Fall Prevention.
Article in American journal of lifestyle medicine. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 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.
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
More than one in three adults age ≥65 fall each year, and fall-related deaths are increasing in the United States. Falls risks can be reduced when older adults are able to engage in series of behavior changes to reduce their high fall risk factors. However, older adults perceive their fall risks to be lower than clinically indicated and adherence rates for fall prevention recommendations are suboptimal. Motivational interviewing (MI), a validated patient-centered behavior change communication approach, is ideal for addressing these gaps and facilitating older adults' engagement in fall prevention. The goal of this paper is to present practical tips to apply MI for fall prevention for clinicians who may not be familiar with MI. We draw on our experience from providing MI sessions to high fall risk older adults within a randomized controlled trial. We describe how we delivered MI sessions and practical lessons learned from this experience. We present how basic MI skills can be used for fall prevention using a case study, how an older adult may move through
