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
purposeThe co-occurrence of health impairments in patients and their informal caregivers may be particularly common in intimate care settings in China. Patients with Chronic Refractory Wounds (CRWs) and their informal caregivers constitute a dyad and exhibit dyadic effects during the caring process. Unfortunately, no study has yet explored the dyadic effects of stigma on the QoL of patients with CRWs and their caregivers.
methodsWe used a convenience sampling method and recruited CRWs patient-caregiver dyads (N = 207) in China between April 2022 and October 2023.
resultsWe found that: (i) dyadic members experience varying degrees of stigma; (ii) the actor-partner effect of CRWs patients' stigma on their own and their informal caregivers' QoL was significant (Path A
conclusionThere is a notable actor-partner effect of the CRWs patients' stigma on their own and their informal caregivers' QoL. CRWs patients' stigma should become a priority for the government to improve CRWs patients' and informal caregivers' QoL. Besides, health professionals should be addressing several assessments and interventions to decrease informal caregivers' affiliate stigma symptoms and improve CRWs patients' and informal caregivers' QoL.
