Interventions for Family Caregivers of Patients Receiving Palliative/Hospice Care at Home: A Scoping Review.
Article in Journal of palliative medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 16 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
There is a need for understanding the breadth of interventions for caregivers of individuals receiving hospice care at home, given the important role caregivers play in caring and the negative outcomes (e.g., depression) associated with their caregiving. Previous reviews were limited in scope to certain types of interventions or patient populations. The objective of this scoping review was to broadly examine the interventions targeting caregivers who provide care to terminally ill patients in home, with the purpose of (1) describing the characteristics of these interventions, (2) discussing key outcomes, limitations, and knowledge gaps, (3) highlighting intervention strengths, and (4) proposing future research directions. We followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR). Intervention studies that met the inclusion criteria and that were published up until October 2022 were obtained from the following databases: Ovid MEDLINE, Ovid EMBASE, CINAHL (EBSCO), and The Cochrane Library (Wiley). We analyzed 76 studies describing 55 unique interventions that took place in 14 countries. Interventions were largely delivered by nurses (
