Moderators of interdependent psychological distress in cancer survivor-caregiver dyads.

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
backgroundThe purpose of this study was to test dyadic interdependence in psychological distress (anxiety and depressive symptoms) and explore moderators of interdependence among cancer survivors in treatment and their informal caregivers.
methodsCancer survivors and their caregivers completed measures of anxiety and depressive symptoms, social support, social isolation, and burden of other symptoms, at three points in time over the course of 17 weeks.
resultsIn 315 dyads, depressive symptoms and anxiety were transmitted from caregivers to survivors. Survivors with high symptom burden or low social support were especially influenced by caregivers' depressive symptoms. Caregivers who had high social isolation or low social support were most likely to be influenced by survivors' depressive symptoms.
conclusionPsychological distress is transmitted within dyads during cancer treatment. Dyadic interdependence was most pronounced from caregivers to survivors. Symptom burden, social isolation, and low social support enhanced this dyadic interdependence.
