Recruiting Spousal Caregivers of People Living With Alzheimer's or a Related Dementia for Caregiver Intervention Research: Lessons Learned From a Feasibility Study.
Article in Journal of applied gerontology : the official journal of the Southern Gerontological Society, 2025. 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
Improving caregivers' quality of life begins with conducting research that aims to understand caregiver's needs. However, caregivers may be reluctant to participate in research studies, adding to the importance of developing, tracking, and evaluating recruitment strategies. Here, we review the nationwide community outreach practices we implemented as our lab embarked on a program of research to develop an online intervention tailored for those caring for a spouse with Alzheimer's Disease or a Related Dementia (ADRD). We made hundreds of "cold" calls and e-mails to organizations across the US who may have access to caregivers, but whom we had no prior relationship with. It took 36.5 contact attempts to possible recruitment sites for every 1 enrolled caregiver. While time consuming, this low-cost recruitment method may offer a route for research teams to recruit caregivers into research studies without access to a medical center or collaborating physician(s).
