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.

Abstract

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the quality of life of stroke caregivers and analyze its association with the discharge readiness of both caregivers and patients. Methods: A total of 302 stroke patients and their primary caregivers were recruited from the neurology departments of three hospitals affiliated with Chengdu Medical College using a convenience sampling method. Sociodemographic data, the WHO Quality of Life Scale (WHOQOL-BREF), the Caregiver Preparedness Scale (CPS), and the Readiness for Hospital Discharge Scale (RHDS) were used. Statistical analyses included Results: The overall mean quality of life of primary caregivers is 60.80±6.06, indicating a relatively low level. The mean readiness for discharge scores are as follows: caregivers: 17.66±2.67, indicating a moderate level; stroke patients: 78.17±8.16, indicating a relatively low level. A positive correlation was found between caregivers' quality of life and their own as well as the patients' readiness for discharge ( Conclusion: Caregivers' quality of life is generally low but can be improved by enhancing discharge readiness for both caregivers and patients.
