Training to Move an Evidence-based Dementia Caregiver Support Program into Practice: A pragmatic, randomized, non-inferiority trial protocol.
Article in Contemporary clinical trials communications, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map.

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
Background: Despite over 200 evidence-based dementia caregiver programs, we know little about the best approaches for optimally scaling these programs in daily service contexts, nor do we fully understand the most effective approaches of ensuring successful implementation. As a result, a small fraction of the many individuals living with dementia and their caregivers within in the US have access to evidence-based programs. A leading barrier to implementation of evidence-based dementia caregiver support programs into long-term care settings is the lack of streamlined, scalable, user-friendly, and tested training modalities. Objective: To describe the protocol for a study evaluating the implementation of the Care of Persons in their Environment (COPE) in Programs of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE) setting. The COPE in PACE study aims to determine if self-paced, online training in the evidence-based dementia care program COPE is non-inferior to the traditional, in-person, instructor-led training for improving clinician knowledge and competence, patient symptoms, function, caregiver confidence and burden, and therapeutic alliance between clinicians and caregivers.Methods/Design: Pragmatic, multisite randomized controlled non-inferiority trial is being used to assess the implementation of COPE into PACE. The study utilizes a type III hybrid effectiveness design with a primary focus on measuring implementation factors and a secondary focus on measuring COPE effectiveness through caregiver and patient outcomes and therapeutic alliance. The 'COPE in PACE' study is an ongoing trial being conducted in 10 PACE settings throughout the US (NCT04165213). Discussion: This study design has potential to guide future translational efforts by providing program adaptation, fidelity monitoring and implementation details to enhance scalability of evidence-based programs. Clinical trial registration: NCT04165213.
