Factors associated with higher caregiver burden among informal caregivers of Parkinson's disease: A systematic review.
Synthesis in Medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
backgroundParkinson's disease is a progressive neurodegenerative disease and the care burden in informal caregivers is huge. Summarizing factors associated with the informal caregivers burden can improve our understanding of providing proactive support to informal caregivers caring for patients with Parkinson's disease (PwP) at risk, and provides evidence for clinical practice.
methodsPRISMA guidelines were followed in this systematic review. We searched 9 databases in May 2024 for studies reporting data on factors associated with the care burden of informal caregivers for PwP.
resultsWe identified 16456 records of which 28 met inclusion criteria. Informal caregivers from 12 countries were included. There were 38 factors shown to be linked to higher care burden. The evidence indicated that informal caregivers who were depressed, caring for PwP with lower quality of life, caring for PwP with lower ADL scores, or caring for PwP with depression reported high care burden.
conclusionTargeted interventions addressing those modifiable factors should be developed and investigated to lighten the care burden of informal caregivers for PwP.
