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

objectivesChronic renal failure affects the physiological, psychological, functional ability, and independent status of the patient, which might result in a burden to the family members caring for them. The objective of the study was to identify caregivers' level of burden and establish the impact of educational intervention programs on caregiving outcomes.

methodsThis was a one-group pre-test post-test study conducted between April and August 2017 on family caregivers of hemodialysis patients. A convenient sample of 169 caregivers was used. A socio-demographic questionnaire, the OBCS, and BCOS were utilized for data collection, which occurred at baseline and two weeks post-intervention. The collected data were analyzed using SPSS where

resultsCaregivers were found to be moderately burdened (

conclusionCaring for patients receiving hemodialysis adds extra responsibilities to the caregivers' schedule thus leaving them substantially burdened. Educating caregivers on the required care eased their burden and improved caregiving outcomes. Recommendations are made that healthcare professionals should assess caregiver burden, and address their physical and mental health needs. Caregivers should also be regularly educated on the regular caregiving tasks to ease their burden.
