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

aimsThis protocol directs a study that aims to: (a) describe the caregiver's experience over 8-12 weeks after an index adult patient's allogeneic bone marrow transplant (BMT) for advanced cancer using a case-oriented approach and mixed methods, with qualitative methods in the foreground; and (b) explore networks of relationships among psycho-neurological symptoms, positive psychological states and caregiver health.

designCase-oriented longitudinal design using multiple data types and analytic approaches.

methodsData will be collected from 10-12 caregivers. The sample will be recruited from a large public hospital in the southeastern United States using maximum variation sampling (e.g., caregiver race/ethnicity, relationship to patient, age, education, and number of caregiving roles). Participants will be asked to complete weekly surveys, have their blood drawn bi-weekly and participate in an interview each month during the study period (~100 days). Aim 1 analysis will include directed content analysis and case-oriented visual analysis. Aim 2 analysis will include symptom network estimation of psycho-neurological symptoms, positive psychological states, and caregiver health. Institutional review board approval was obtained August 2018. DISCUSSION: Results will provide an in-depth description of caregivers' experiences in the 100 days after BMT. Findings will inform generation of hypotheses and identification of targets for interventions to improve caregiver's experiences after BMT. IMPACT: This in-depth multi-method longitudinal study to describe caregivers of adult patients receiving an allogeneic BMT is an essential step in understanding caregivers' complex responses to chronic stress and the role of positive psychological states. The results from this study will inform future research on chronic stress processes, intense caregiving, and intervention development.
