Effects of Informal Caregivers' Health on Care Recipients.
Article in Japanese economic review (Oxford, England), 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Informal care is increasingly important in countries undergoing population aging. Previous research has discussed how the long-term care system may affect the behaviors of informal caregivers but has paid not much attention to how changes in caregivers' circumstances, particularly their health, affect those receiving their care. Using the Japanese Study of Aging and Retirement, we empirically examine how caregivers' health condition may affect the elderly parents receiving their care. We find empirical evidence that declining caregivers' health adversely affects care recipients' health. We see such links between informal caregivers and their in-laws, demonstrating that these effects go beyond genetic influences.
