Experiences of inner strength in persons newly diagnosed with mild cognitive impairment: A qualitative study.
Article in Geriatric nursing (New York, N.Y.). The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Inner strength, one's internal process of moving through challenging circumstances, has not been described in persons living with mild cognitive impairment (MCI). This qualitative study used the Listening Guide methodology to explore experiences of inner strength in persons newly diagnosed with MCI. We analyzed 36 joint and individual semi-structured interviews with nine participants with MCI and nine care partners. Analytic poems represented three themes explaining inner strength experiences. In the foundational theme, Me with MCI, participants reconfigured their sense of self. The theme Vacillating between Seeking Relief and Dwelling in Challenge illustrated adjusting to life with MCI. The theme You Get through It characterized inner strengths including perseverance, optimism, accepting MCI, and seeking help. Each participant's inner strength profile was unique and impacted by cognitive impairment, and therefore benefitted from support. Though limited by homogeneity, this study highlights Listening Guide utility and has implications for strengths-based interventions and nursing practice.
