Predictors of sexual satisfaction among Social Security and National Insurance Trust pensioners in the Greater Accra Region of Ghana.
Article in PloS one, 2025. 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
The population of pensioners remains on the rise in Ghana coupled with an intrinsic need for sexual activity and satisfaction. However, data on factors associated with sexual satisfaction among pensioners are limited in Ghana. The aim of this study was to examine the predictors of sexual satisfaction among Social Security and National Insurance Trust pensioners in the Greater Accra Region of Ghana. We employed a cross-sectional survey design in this study. Participants were recruited using cluster and stratified sampling techniques. Our analytical sample was 410 participants. Ordinal logistic regressions were employed to determine predictors of sexual satisfaction among the participants. The significance of the test was set at a p-value ≤ 0.05. The results showed that participants who were household head (AOR: 1.874, 95% CI: 1.037-3.388), who did not incur any expenditure on their household in a month (AOR: 6.290, 95% CI: 1.758-22.511) and those who undertake daily exercises were significantly (AOR: 1.981, 95% CI: 1.276-3.075) more likely to fall in one of the higher categories of sexual satisfaction compared to their counterparts. Also, the study revealed that those with secondary education (AOR:.503, 95% CI:.253-.0.999), who were in the public sector (AOR:.449, 95% CI:.237 -.850), who were very dissatisfied with health service access/use (AOR:.032, 95% CI:.002-.421) and not able to determine whether they were satisfied or dissatisfied with their health status (AOR:.518, 95% CI:.329-.816) were significantly less likely to fall in one of the higher categories of sexual satisfaction. Findings of this study suggest that household headship, education level, employment sector, expenditure on household, satisfaction with health services/use, daily exercises intake and satisfaction with health status were associated with sexual satisfaction among the participants. In relation to our findings, the implications for policy, practice and future research have been discussed for the attention of policy makers and researchers.
