Influencing factors of self-perceived aging among empty nesters: a cross-sectional study.

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
Introduction: The mental health issues faced by empty nesters deserve more attention. Studying self-perception of aging (SPA) and its influencing factors among empty nesters may help prevent negative SPA. Objective: To analyze situations and factors influencing SPA among elderly empty nesters, especially the mediating role of daily living ability and loneliness. Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted in two communities in Binzhou City, Shandong Province of China. A total of 613 elderly empty nesters were studied using a self-designed general information questionnaire, the Brief Ageing Perception Questionnaire (B-APQ), the Activities of Daily Living (ADL) Scale, and the UCLA Loneliness Scale (ULS-6). Structural equation modeling (SEM) was used to analyze the relationships between variables. Results: Pathway analysis of SPA influencing factors shows that marital status, children's visits, and self reported health had an indirect effect on SPA through loneliness. Chronic disease status had an indirect effect on SPA through daily living ability. Time outdoors had an indirect effect on SPA through activities of daily living and loneliness. Discussion: Daily life ability, chronic disease status, time outdoors, loneliness, self-reported health, marital status, and children's visits affected SPA among empty nesters. Conclusion: Empty nesters' SPA is relatively negative, and there are many influencing factors. It is important to improve empty nesters' abilities to manage healthcare tasks, increase outdoor activities and family members' care, and provide comprehensive interventions to help them navigate aging.
