1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundParents' supportive care needs directly affect their quality of life and the quality of care for their children diagnosed with leukemia.

objectivesTo identify supportive care needs of Chinese parents in the unobserved subgroups who care for children with leukemia and to examine the associations of the latent class membership with individual characteristics.

methodsA multicenter cross-sectional survey study was conducted. A total of 221 parents who had children with leukemia were surveyed in China with the Chinese version of the Supportive Care Needs Survey for Caregivers of Children with Pediatric Cancer (SCNS-C-Ped-C). Latent profile analysis (LPA) was applied to identify latent classes of parents according to supportive care needs. Binary logistic regression model was used to identify the association between individual characteristics and the latent class membership.

resultsLPA results suggested a 2-class solution: class 1-"high supportive care needs" class (n = 126, 57.0%) and class 2-"low supportive care needs" class (n = 95, 43.0%). The class membership was significantly associated with children's treatment duration, family income, distance to the hospital, parents' caregiving ability, and coping strategy.

conclusionThere existed two distinct classes of parents caring for children with leukemia on the basis of supportive care needs. Children's treatment duration, parents' socio-demographic characteristics, caregiving ability, and coping strategy significantly influenced class membership. IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE: This study highlights the need for tailored interventions to address the specific needs of parents, especially those in the "high supportive care needs" class. Healthcare providers should consider factors related to the class membership when developing the supportive care interventions. Addressing these supportive care needs could improve both parental well-being and the quality of care provided to their children.
