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
Objective: To investigate the current status and influencing factors of digital health literacy (DHL) among older adults in China, providing evidence to guide interventions for improving DHL in this population. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted in November 2024 in Xuzhou using a multistage stratified cluster sampling method. A total of 1,005 valid questionnaires were collected. The survey included demographic information, the Chinese version of the DHL scale, self-rated health status, and activities of daily living. Random forest modeling and binary logistic regression were employed to identify predictors of DHL. Results: A total of 1,005 adults aged 60 years and older were recruited; the mean DHL score was 24.75 ± 11.74. Only 40.6% of the participants ( Conclusions: The results revealed that DHL among older adults is relatively low, primarily due to a substantial gap between the rapid expansion of Internet services and limited digital competencies. Targeted interventions, including enhancing household Internet access, implementing age-friendly DHL training, and promoting supportive and inclusive community-based activities, are recommended.
