Multiple Victims: The Result of Caring Patients in Vegetative State.
Article in Iranian Red Crescent medical journal, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
backgroundHaving a patient in a vegetative state in the family is a complicated and stressful experience. Caring for such patients with complete disability at home is very challenging.
objectivesThe present study aimed to explore the outcomes of caring for patients in a vegetative state for families and caregivers at home. PATIENTS AND
methodsIn this qualitative study, 16 vegetative patients' caregivers were selected through purposive sampling. Unstructured interviews and observations were used for data gathering. Data collection was continued until saturation of data and emergence of the main themes. Data analysis was performed by the content analysis method.
resultsThe analysis of the gathered data led to three themes: "lost main caregiver", "affected caring partner" and "affected family". Each theme had some subthemes and subcategories.
conclusionsThe three emerged themes in this study showed that all the family members of vegetative patients, depending on their responsibilities, were affected by physical, mental, social and economic issues.
