Barriers to Pain Management: Incongruence in Black Cancer Caregiving Dyads.
Article in Journal of pain and symptom management, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
contextTo effectively manage cancer pain, there is a need to understand how caregiving dyads appraise symptoms. Dyadic appraisal of symptoms influences whether the dyad perceives the patient's pain is managed well and whether they are on the same page with their appraisal. Beliefs can act as barriers to the dyadic appraisal.
objectivesThis secondary data analysis examined incongruence within Black cancer caregiving dyads regarding beliefs about pain management and potential medication side effects using the Barriers Questionnaire-13. Associated factors were also examined.
methodsGuided by the Theory of Dyadic Illness Management, dyadic multilevel modeling was conducted with data from 60 Black cancer caregiving dyads to determine the dyadic appraisal of beliefs about pain management and potential medication side effects, which includes the average perception of barriers within the dyad (i.e., dyadic average) and the dyadic incongruence (i.e., gap between patient and caregiver).
resultsOn average, Black cancer caregiving dyads reported moderate barriers regarding pain management (2.262 (SE=0.102, P<0.001) and medication side effects (2.223 (SE=0.144, P<0.001). There was significant variability across dyads regarding barriers to pain management and medication side effects. Lower patient education and higher patient-reported pain interference were significantly associated with more perceived barriers to pain management and potential medication side effects. Incongruence within dyads regarding barriers to pain management and medication side effects were significantly associated with the caregiver's report of patient's pain interference.
conclusionFindings suggest the importance of appraisal that includes both members of Black cancer caregiving dyads regarding pain management.
