Analysis of the Influence of Depression on the Occupational Performance of People Diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis and Its Impact on Caregiver Burden.

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
Background: One of the most common symptoms in multiple sclerosis (MS) is depression, which causes disruption to daily participation. MS as a degenerative disease causes caregiver strain. The aim of this study is to analyze the influence of depression on the occupational performance of people with MS and to study whether these aspects influence caregiver strain. Materials and Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional observational study was carried out. A total of 124 people with a diagnosis of multiple sclerosis were assessed and administered the Beck Depression Inventory-II, the Canadian Occupational Performance Measure, and the Zarit Caregiver Burden Scale. Results: MS type influences performance, involvement, and caregiver burden. High levels of depression are associated with low levels of participation and performance. The types of MS with the highest caregiver burden are relapsing-remitting and secondary progressive. Conclusions: The type of MS negatively influences occupational performance. Depression and occupational performance are related to caregiver strain. The greater the depressive symptoms, the worse the performance, and the more caregiver strain.
