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.

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.

Abstract

objectiveto analyse the effectiveness of a virtual educational intervention for family caregivers on the burden and ability to care for elderly people after stroke.

methodrandomized pragmatic trial with 58 caregivers of elderly survivors of stroke. The intervention group received access to an online course for caregiver education. Caregiver training was assessed using the Scale of Capabilities of Informal Caregivers for Dependent Elderly People due to Stroke and burden through the Caregiver Burden Scale before and three months after hospital discharge, both adapted and validated for use in Brazil. The Generalized Estimating Equations model complemented by the Least Significant Difference was adopted.

resultsthe sample was homogeneous and the groups differed statistically only in relation to kinship (p=0.034), with a higher proportion of children observed in the control group. There was an effect of the intervention on improving medication administration (p=0.006) and reducing disappointment (p=0.011) in the intervention group.

conclusionthe intervention benefited the caregivers who received it in terms of improving medication administration and reducing disappointment. This is the first study in Brazil that proposes the use of digital educational technologies for this group, representing an important advance in Nursing. Clinicaltrial.gov registration: NCT05553340.

background(1)First study in Brazil that proposes a MOOC for caregivers of elderly people after stroke. (2)Advances in Nursing in the construction of digital educational technologies.
