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

purposeThe aim of this study was to determine the quality of life and its related factors in the caregivers of children with cancer.

methodsThis cross-sectional study assessed the quality of life of 270 caregivers of children with cancer in Iran. Data collection tools were a personal information form and the Caregiver Quality of Life Index-Cancer. Data were analyzed by SPSS-18 software using descriptive and inferential statistics (independent t-test, analysis of variance, and linear regression model).

resultsThe mean score of quality of life was 78.3 ± 1.6 out of 140. Variables that were significantly associated with quality of life included age (p = .031), gender (p = .021), education (p = .048), occupation (p = .011), economic status (p = .038), average caring time (p = .021), and age of the child (p = .011).

conclusionThe caregivers of children with cancer did not have a good quality of life. Healthcare providers need to provide comprehensive educational, emotional, social, and economic support to the caregivers of patients with cancer.
