Person-Centered Technology for Older Adults: Benefits, Limitations, and Considerations in Design and Use.
Article in Journal of applied gerontology : the official journal of the Southern Gerontological Society, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Use of technology is widespread in healthcare, and although much has been written about innovative technology in support of older adults, little research focuses on whether technology facilitates person-centeredness-the ability to serve individuals' interest, values, goals, and needs. Using person-centeredness as a framework, we solicited input regarding technology's potential to maximize quality of life based on discussions with care providers and experts in technology design and aging-related healthcare. Discussion identified that technology can facilitate or impede person-centeredness depending on its adaptability and implementation. Further, co-design with older adults, caregivers, family members, and clinicians is considered critical to eliciting person-centered goals from the end-user, meaning that technology designers should involve these groups in all phases of design. Importantly, it was also noted that inequity in access based on income, location, and race/ethnicity prevents technology from reaching many older adults; therefore, person-centeredness in technology must address this issue.
