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

Background: Community-based lifestyle interventions, including nature-based and Green Care activities, are associated with improved psychological well-being among older adults. However, these programs are often delivered as standardized interventions without systematic alignment with individual functional capacity or psychosocial needs. The World Health Organization's Integrated Care for Older People (ICOPE) framework is a person-centred, integrated care approach spanning assessment, care planning, and community linkage, offering a multidimensional structure for assessing intrinsic capacity and guiding personalized participation. Objective: This study examined the association between participation in community-based lifestyle intervention domains and psychological well-being among rural older adults and evaluated the potential of the ICOPE framework as a classification structure for precision community participation. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted among community-dwelling older adults in rural Taiwan. Psychological well-being was assessed using the WHO-5 Well-Being Index. Participation in lifestyle intervention domains was analyzed, and cluster analysis was used to identify heterogeneous participation profiles. Results: Distinct participation clusters with varying well-being profiles were identified. Higher engagement in community-based and nature-based interventions was associated with significantly higher psychological well-being. Conclusion: Community-based lifestyle and Green Care interventions were associated with psychological well-being outcomes among rural older adults. As a person-centred, integrated care framework, ICOPE offers a promising conceptual structure for organizing community participation programs and supporting precision social prescribing, though direct testing of ICOPE-guided intervention matching was beyond the scope of this study. Personalized community-based health promotion.
