Caregiving Factors as Predictors of Care Recipient Mortality.
Article in The American journal of geriatric psychiatry : official journal of the American Association for Geriatric Psychiatry, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 25 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
objectiveAssess a conceptual model linking caregiving factors to care recipient mortality in a large representative sample of older adults with disability.
designDescriptive longitudinal study with 5-year mortality follow-up among older adults with disability. Baseline in person and telephone interviews/assessments of older adults with disability and their family caregivers carried out in 2011.
settingRepresentative samples of older US population and their family caregivers.
participantsUS representative samples of older adults with disability aged 65 and over (National Health and Aging Study) and their family caregivers (National Study of Caregiving; www.nhats.org; N = 1,262). MEASUREMENT: Controlling for known risk factors for mortality in older adults, including age, gender, race, education, socioeconomic status, disability, and cognitive status, we assess the role of three caregiving factors (depression, anxiety, and burden) and three mediating factors (care recipient depression, anxiety, and unmet needs for care) as predictors of care recipient mortality.
resultsCaregiver burden, care recipient depression, and care recipient unmet needs are independent predictors of care recipient mortality.
conclusionCaregiving factors may play an important role in the survival of their care recipients. This is a relatively unexplored research area that calls for fine-grained studies capturing caregiver-care recipient health-related interactions over time.
