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

Patients with neurocognitive disorders experience subjectively the concept of quality of life; this is the reason why researchers avoid approaching this concept and prefer to focus attention on the emotional profile of the caregivers. Many studies highlight the efforts both emotional and financial made by caregivers in case of patients diagnosed with neurocognitive disorders. The present study shows the differences between the patients diagnosed with neurocognitive disorder due to Alzheimer's disease and patients diagnosed with stroke, as well as the Romanian norms for the short form of Geriatric Depression Scale. The study group consisted of the clinical population (N=45), selected according to the inclusion/exclusion criteria, following the principles of Helsinki Declaration for Ethical Medical Research. The study was conducted at the Neuropsychiatry section of the Municipal Clinical Hospital, Dr Gavril Curteanu, Oradea, Romania. The results showed significant differences between the two types of patients in terms of quality of life, t(43)=-7.99, P=0.001, affective distress, t(43)=5.10, P=0.001 and perceived stress, t(43)=3.81, P=0.001. The internal consistency of the scale is high, the coefficient KR-20 being 0.86.
