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

objectiveThe burden and psychological impact of providing care to a loved one with cancer is significant and associated with a number of problems including sleep disturbance and fatigue. While engaging in healthy behaviors such as proper nutrition, exercise, and stress reduction may improve sleep and fatigue, few studies have focused on this relationship. The objective of this study is to examine the relationship of health behaviors with sleep quality and fatigue in transplant caregivers.

methodsData were analyzed from a cross-sectional survey of 78 caregivers of patients undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Measures included: Health-Promoting Lifestyle Profile II (HPLP-II), Brief Symptom Inventory (Distress), Caregiver Reaction Assessment (Caregiver Burden), Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, and the Multidimensional Fatigue Symptom Inventory Short-Form.

resultsControlling for age, gender, BMI, burden and distress, health behaviors predicted sleep quality (B = -0.408, p = 0.021) and fatigue (B = -0.966, p < 0.001). Stress management (B = -0.450, p = 0.001), nutrition (B = -0.249, p = 0.048), and interpersonal relationships (B = -0.319, p = 0.049) were the HPLP-II subscales that significantly predicted sleep quality; nearly every HPLP-II subscale predicted fatigue.

conclusionsDespite the burden and distress associated with caregiving, engaging in healthy behaviors may help to improve sleep and fatigue in transplant caregivers. Published 2015. This article is a U.S. Government work and is in the public domain in the USA.
