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

Objective: Diabetes as a silent epidemic and one of the top four causes of death in the world. This study was designed to evaluate the quality of life and depression in family caregivers of patients with type 1 diabetes in Iran. Methods: The study was case-control study (cases, Results: The multivariable logistic regression model showed a significant association between existence of a patient with type 1 diabetes with number of caregivers' children (odds ratio (OR) = 1.77; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.06-2.94), quality of life (OR = 0.82; 95% CI: 0.74-0.90), sex (OR = 10.04; 95% CI: 2.29-43.99), and income level of caregivers (OR = 6.49; 95% CI: 1.35-31.08); however, it did not show a significant relationship with depression (OR = 1.02; 95% CI: 0.94-1.10). Conclusion: The quality of life in family caregivers of type 1 diabetics is low and gender, income level, and number of caregivers' children were the most important factors predicting it. Therefore, psychological interventions to manage stress and improve the quality of life of family caregivers are recommended.
