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
Objective: To investigate the impact of chemotherapy induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) on the anxiety and depression of the primary family caregivers of patients with cancer. Methods: This study screened family caregivers of patients with cancer undergoing highly emetogenic chemotherapy (HEC) containing a 3-day cisplatin regime. Caregivers who did not experience anxiety or depression at baseline screening were enrolled in this study. Based on the patients' CINV status during chemotherapy, their family caregivers were divided into two groups: patients who experienced CINV (CINV group) and patients who did not experience CINV (No-CINV group). All enrolled family caregivers completed the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) questionnaire on the fourth and 8 days of chemotherapy. Results: A total of 256 family caregivers were screened for this study, of which 195 caregivers without anxiety or depression at baseline were included. A total of 150 (76.9%) patients undergoing chemotherapy experienced acute CINV; 63 (42%) of their family caregivers experienced anxiety, and 65 (43.3%) developed depression. This was significantly higher than the experiences of the No-CINV group (2.2%, Conclusion: Acute and delayed CINV occurring in patients during chemotherapy may induce anxiety and depression in their family caregivers.
