Implementing Caring Technologies and Social Mobilisation for Older Adults: A Mixed-Methods Evaluation Across Seven European Case Studies.
Article in International journal of environmental research and public health, 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
Population ageing presents growing challenges for health and social care systems, particularly in supporting older adults to remain independent and involved in decisions concerning their own health and wellbeing. The EMPOWERing individuals and communities to manage their own CARE (EMPOWERCARE) project evaluated asset-based initiatives designed to support older adults in managing their health and wellbeing across seven pilot sites in Belgium, France, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom. Initiatives were categorised as caring technologies, which focused on digital tools and assistive technologies to improve autonomy, promote self-management, and support independent living, and social mobilisation initiatives aimed at building stronger community networks, reducing loneliness, and fostering engagement. A multi-site, embedded case study design combined quantitative and qualitative methods. Survey data were collected at baseline (T0; n = 187) and endpoint (T2; n = 105) between July 2021 and January 2023. Outcomes included self-efficacy, mental wellbeing, loneliness and digital literacy.
