Quality of Life Among Family of Patients with Atopic Dermatitis and Psoriasis.
Article in International journal of behavioral medicine, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 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
backgroundChronic inflammatory skin diseases like atopic dermatitis (AD) and psoriasis can severely impact patients' quality of life (QOL). However, the effect of these diseases can diminish the QOL of patients' family members as well. The objective of this study was to understand the impact on QOL for family members of patients diagnosed with AD or psoriasis.
methodsWe conducted focus groups and interviews with 23 individuals; 12 had a family member with AD, and 11 had a family member with psoriasis. After investigators independently coded the transcripts, thematic analysis was conducted.
resultsThree major themes emerged: (1) lifestyle consequences-many daily activities for family members, including but not limited to leisure activities, sleep, and cleaning, were affected by AD or psoriasis; (2) emotional consequences-family members felt frustrated, worried, or embarrassed, among other concerns, because of their loved ones' AD or psoriasis; (3) relationships-relationships between family members and their loved ones with AD or psoriasis could become strained, and though family members might try to be sympathetic, doing so could be difficult because of their lack of understanding of how these diseases feel and personally affect their loved ones.
conclusionsThis study highlights the impacts of AD and psoriasis on the whole family. Clinicians should be mindful of the effects on QOL not only for patients but also for family members who live with and care about these patients. Especially when family members assist with treatments, it is important to understand family members' experiences when making treatment decisions.
