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
objectiveCaregiver burden is a factor that caregivers undertake for patients with chronic diseases and individuals in need of care. Depending on the symptoms of the disease and the processes following the diagnosis, depression problems may develop in caregivers. In this study, it was aimed at determining the caregiving burden of parents who have children with chronic diseases, the condition of special needs, and the factors that affect this burden. MATERIALS AND
methodsThis study is a descriptive cross-sectional study conducted with 206 parents of children who had been diagnosed with a chronic disease for at least 1 year. The sociodemographic data, the Patient Health Questionnaire 2 and 9, and the Burden Scale for Family Caregivers were provided to the parents.
resultsEighty-four of the participants had little or no caregiver burden, while 122 had moderate and severe caregiver burden. The mean caregiving burden score of mothers was higher (P = .004). Fathers' caregiver burden scores varied depending on the level of education (P = .031). Caregiving burden score was found to differ according to income level (P < .001). The mean caregiving burden score of individuals with chronic disease in the family was higher (P < .001). It was determined that individuals with higher Patient Health Questionnaire 2 and 9 scores and those who did not receive psychological support were higher (P < .001).
conclusionParents who are providing care for children with chronic diseases should be supported and closely monitored for signs of depression. Cite this article as: Güven Baysal Ş, Çorabay S.
