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

Globally, the growth of ageing populations is significant, with more people requiring supported living environments, including residential aged care (RAC). Given the influence of the environment on health outcomes, it is important to consider approaches to evaluate aged care design, including both the built environment and products and technology. With the overarching aim to identify the scope of RAC-built environment and assistive technology design interventions and the way this data is captured methodologically, this review (i) identified methods and measures used to evaluate RAC-built environment and assistive technology design, and examined populations these methods and measures were used with, and (ii) mapped identified approaches to the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF).
