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

STUDY

objectivesThis study examined the impact of central disorders of hypersomnolence (CDH) on family members of adult patients, the ways family members assist with managing CDH, and family members' utilization and satisfaction with information and support.

methodsParticipants were adults (n = 100) with an adult family member diagnosed with idiopathic hypersomnia or narcolepsy. They completed a survey which included the Family Reported Outcome Measure, checklists, satisfaction ratings, and open-response questions.

resultsThe Family Reported Outcome Measure sample mean (14.2, standard deviation = 6.8) corresponded to a moderate effect on quality of life. Compared to parents, partners reported a higher impact on the personal and social life domain (

conclusionsFamily members play an important role in supporting adults with CDH in many ways, including tasks related to managing CDH. Family members experience many psychosocial impacts from CDH, and data from this study indicate unmet needs for support. CITATION: Mundt JM, Franklin R-C, Horsnell M, Garza V.
