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

Background and Objectives: Care partners of hospitalized older adults report their caregiving needs are not being addressed. The Care Partner Hospital Assessment Tool (CHAT) is a feasible and appropriate tool for practitioners' use with care partners in the hospital setting. This article explores the face validity and acceptability of the CHAT among care partners of hospitalized older adults. Research Design and Methods: A qualitative descriptive study was used to identify common themes among care partners' responses from semistructured interviews. The CHAT was administered to care partners of older adults admitted to a medical-surgical unit in an academic medical center in Madison, WI, from October 2021 to January 2022. A semistructured, follow-up interview was completed by the same care partners after discharge. Interviews were transcribed and coded for themes to capture overall impressions of the CHAT. Care partners addressed the usefulness, comfort, content, and complexity of the CHAT. Results: Twelve care partners participated in the study. Care partners reported that the CHAT was easy to understand and complete, was judged to be useful to both the care partner and older adult, and helped identify care partner needs. Care partners suggested ways to improve the tool including administration, additional content areas to include, and modes of delivery. Discussion and Implications: The results establish the face validity of the CHAT and support the acceptability of the tool for use with care partners of hospitalized older adults.
