Perceptions and Attitudes toward a Proposed Digital Health Physical Activity Program among Older Family Caregivers of Persons with Heart Failure: A Qualitative Study.
Article in Informatics for health & social care, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Tailored physical activity (PA) programs using digital health technologies in the home can promote family caregivers' (FCGs) physical function and psychological wellbeing. However, there is a gap in research for digital health PA interventions targeting older FCGs of persons with HF (HF-FCGs). The burden of caregiving for persons with HF may displace the FCG's self-care, including PA. Therefore, we examined older HF-FCGs' perceptions and attitudes toward three technology components (video-conferencing, fitness tracker, text messaging) that would be most useful in delivering a digital health PA program. Interviews were conducted with 13 HF-FCGs (≥65 years old) between January and April 2021. Directed content analysis was used and the analysis was guided by the adapted unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT) model. In addition to HF-FCGs' perceptions and attitudes toward each technology component in each construct of the adapted UTAUT model (ease of use, usefulness, facilitating conditions), three additional factors were associated with intention to use technology. These were: (1) HF patients' positive experience, (2) digital skills, and (3) quality of internet connectivity. The findings provide digital health requirements for design and modification of a technology-supported PA program that engages older FCGs who care for persons with HF.
