Associations of financial hardship with suicidal ideation among bereaved cancer caregivers.
Article in Journal of psychosocial oncology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
purposeTo examine associations between financial hardship and suicidal ideation among bereaved informal caregivers of cancer patients.
designLongitudinal cohort study. SAMPLE: 173 informal caregivers of advanced cancer patients.
methodsCaregivers were interviewed a median 3.1 months before and 6.5 months after the death of the patient they cared for. Logistic regression models estimated associations between caregiver-perceived pre-loss and post-loss financial hardship due to the patient's illness and post-loss suicidal ideation.
findingsSuicidal ideation was identified in 12% (
conclusionAmong a cohort of cancer caregivers followed from active caregiving into bereavement, post-loss financial hardship was associated with suicidal ideation in bereavement. IMPLICATIONS: Economic policies that financially benefit caregivers may represent promising strategies for preventing suicidal thoughts and behaviors.
