Article in Atencion primaria, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
objectiveEvaluate the effectiveness of an intervention to family caregivers.
designQuasi-experimental study of type before/after, without control group.
settingPrimary care; 5 primary care centers of Castelló city. PERIOD: Between the month of January 2018 and the month of January 2019.
participants72 family caregivers, participants in a specific intervention recently implemented in the Department de Salut de Castelló.
interventionTraining to family caregivers, seeking to improve knowledge of dependent care, and provide support. Ten group sessions of 120minutes. PRINCIPAL MEASUREMENTS: Descriptive of sociodemographic data. Comparison of the variables overload, low back pain, social support and health-related quality of life before-after the intervention. Variable response: caregiver overload. Bivariate and multivariate analysis.
resultsAll family caregivers had baseline overload (59.93±14.71); 73.3% showed low back pain, with an average level of 5.13±2.56 and moderate disability (41.7%). 50% received little social support and a great impact on health-related quality of life, especially in terms of pain and anxiety. After the intervention, there was a significant improvement (P=.004) in social support, as well as positive descriptive changes in disability due to low back pain and health-related quality of life dimensions. No progress was found (P>.05) for the presence and level of low back pain, as well as overload levels.
conclusionsThe resulting effective intervention to improve perceived social support. However, the low impact on other variables suggests reconsidering its contents, as well as encouraging new prospective studies that may offer more encouraging results.
