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

Parkinson's disease can rob an individual of their most prized roles, and symptoms of the disease itself can make finding new ways to enact existing roles or developing new roles very challenging. The chaplain's case study is reviewed from the perspective of a clinical geropsychologist through the lens of identity theory. The line between chaplain intervention and psychotherapy is addressed. The patient's significant improvement in depression symptoms over the course of his participation in the BRIGHTEN program and with the chaplain are presented to suggest that chaplain intervention can be a central and effective part of an interdisciplinary treatment approach. The need for utilization of existing measures and development of new measures of chaplain intervention are discussed.
