The Impact of Hoarding Disorder on Family Members, Especially the Significant Other.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Hoarding disorder, also known as compulsive hoarding, comes under the umbrella term of obsessive-compulsive disorder and related disorders. The constant building of clutter in the house of hoarders makes it impossible for family members to live a healthy life. It can have appalling effects on their mental health and can lead to severe depression and suicidal ideation. The shame and humiliation attached to hoarding does not allow the hoarders to seek help, causing them distress and hence continuing the vicious cycle of hoarding. By presenting the case of a patient with a spouse with a hoarding disorder, we want to bring to light the severity of the impact hoarding disorder can have on the partner and the grave need to spread awareness about it so that the patient or the family members can seek timely help.
