Effectiveness of a family empowerment program on caregiving capacity and adverse mood in caregivers of children with acute leukemia: a quasi-experimental study.
Article in BMC nursing, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
backgroundFamily-centered empowerment programs have been widely used in the pediatric field. Therefore, the current study investigated the effectiveness of family empowerment programs on caregiving ability and adverse mood among caregivers of children with acute leukemia.
objectiveTo evaluate the effect of a family empowerment program on the caregiving ability and adverse mood of caregivers of children with acute leukemia.
methodsSixty-eight children with acute leukemia and their family caregivers admitted to our hospital were selected for the study. The control group received routine care during hospitalization, and the family empowerment program was implemented in the intervention group to compare the changes in caregiving capacity (FCTI), illness uncertainty (PPUS) and anxiety(SAS)of the caregivers of the two groups.
resultsAfter 8 weeks of intervention, the FCTI score of the intervention group was significantly lower than that of the control group (P < 0.001), and the difference between the scores before and after the intervention was statistically significant (P < 0.001); the PPUS score of the intervention group was significantly lower than that of the control group (P < 0.05), and the difference between the scores before and after the intervention was statistically significant (P < 0.001); the SAS score of the intervention group was lower than that of the control group after intervention(P < 0.05), and the score difference before and after intervention was statistically significant (P < 0.001).
conclusionFamily empowerment program is beneficial in improving caregiving capacity and reducing disease uncertainty and anxiety among caregivers of children with acute leukemia.
