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

aimTo shape an intergenerational engagement (IE) intervention through consultation with a patient and public involvement (PPI) group.

designThis paper describes how PPI contributed to refining an IE intervention within a long-term care facility in China. DATA SOURCES: A PPI group composed of key stakeholders, including older residents of the long-term care facility, young people from a local school, a parent, and care facility staff, provided evaluative feedback. They reviewed and refined various aspects of the intervention (content, scheduling and delivery of the intergenerational activities) and its evaluation (design, recruitment strategies and study materials).

resultsKey modifications included adjusting activities to accommodate diverse backgrounds and technological capabilities, space limitations and the number of participants to optimise engagement and focusing on group activities to encourage lively and inclusive interactions. The group also made recommendations relating to scheduling sessions, length of intervention and recruitment materials to facilitate greater accessibility. DISCUSSION: The integration of PPI made the IE intervention practical, culturally relevant and tailored to meet the diverse needs of older and younger participants, enhancing its feasibility, acceptability and overall effectiveness. The findings underscore the importance of early and continuous PPI in health and social care research to develop relevant and sustainable interventions. Future efforts should focus on policy support, funding and education to embed PPI more broadly into health and social care research in China. PATIENT OR PUBLIC CONTRIBUTION: Feedback was sought from a patient and public involvement (PPI) group to refine and enhance the intergenerational engagement (IE) intervention, ensuring it accurately reflected the needs of participants. Notably, to the best of the authors' knowledge, this study is the first in China to utilise PPI in the co-design of an IE intervention in a long-term care setting, offering valuable insights for future research and practice in this context.
