Factors affecting perceived caregiver burden: caregivers of trauma patients discharged from the intensive care unit.
Article in Proceedings (Baylor University. Medical Center), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Background: Caregivers to intensive care unit survivors are vulnerable to caregiver burden, which has been demonstrated to have consequences to patients' and caregivers' mental and physical health. Potentially modifiable factors should be explored so that interventions may be developed. Methods: Ninety-one anticipated caregivers were prospectively assessed both at a southwestern trauma intensive care unit during their patient's admission and at home via remote interview 3 months after intensive care unit admission. Caregiver depression, posttraumatic stress symptoms, experiences, and perceived burden were assessed. Results: At follow up, there was a significant negative correlation between caregiver burden and understanding of their patient's condition ( Conclusions: Education and knowledge of intensive care unit events regarding their patient may influence perceived burden among caregivers. Interventions to orient caregivers to intensive care unit events are suggested to reduce caregiver and healthcare system burden.
