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: In China, spouses of patients with advanced cancer have reported experiencing psychological distress. However, little attention has been paid to the positive psychological health trajectories of these caregivers, particularly regarding their resilience and the factors influencing its development over time. Purpose: To examine the trajectories of resilience in Chinese spousal caregivers over a nine-month post-treatment period and to identify the basic characteristics associated with these trajectory patterns. Methods: This was a longitudinal, observational study conducted in mainland Chinese between January 2022 and May 2024. A total of 306 spouses of patients receiving cancer treatment were recruited from five local hospitals. Data was collected in four waves: within one month of initial treatment, and then at three-, six-, and nine-month intervals post-treatment. Socio-demographic questionnaires, the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale, and the Beliefs in Chinese Familism Scale were used to collect data. Growth mixture modeling was employed to determine the various trajectories of resilience, followed by logistic regression analysis to examine the associated factors to predict types of trajectories. Results: Growth mixture modeling showed two distinct trajectories of resilience were identified: an increased group ( Conclusion: Our findings underscore the importance of tracking the trajectories of resilience and predictors of trajectory patterns among spouses caring for patients with advanced cancer within a specific cultural context. Healthcare providers should provide tailored interventions to enhance resilience in spousal caregivers, considering the trajectory patterns of mental health change.
