Change in Caregiving to Older Adults During the COVID-19 Pandemic: Differences by Dementia Status.
Article in Journal of applied gerontology : the official journal of the Southern Gerontological Society, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
We use a nationally representative study of 3451 adults who provided assistance to a relative or friend age 50 or older immediately prior to the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic to explore changes to care provisions, use of services, and support networks. While we see turnover in assistance during a retrospectively assessed 12-month time period, respondents exited or adopted caregiving roles primarily for reasons unrelated to the pandemic. About two thirds of caregivers' social networks remained unchanged and, of those that did change, only half lost network members without gaining others. Changes in care settings and use of support services were uncommon. Caregivers to persons with dementia may have been more adversely affected than other caregivers as they were more likely to experience loss of social ties, potentially performing more care activities without the full support system they had in place prior to the pandemic.
