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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundChina has recently encountered severe challenges associated with population aging. Parents of first-generation only children face significant challenges regarding elderly care needs and the associated negative emotions.

aimTo analyze the elderly care needs of first-generation only child parents in China and identify factors that influence negative emotions.

methodsThis study used a cross-sectional design. Convenience sampling was used to select 1580 elderly individuals who met the inclusion criteria in a Chinese city between June and September 2022. A questionnaire was administered to collect general information about participants. Depression and anxiety were assessed using the patient health questionnaire-9 and generalized anxiety disorder-7 scale, respectively. A logistic regression analysis was performed to evaluate the relevant correlations.

resultsAmong 1580 first-generation only child parents, 1120 (70.89%) preferred family based care, 324 (20.51%) opted for community care, and 136 (8.61%) chose institutional care, with 460 (29.11%) reporting negative emotions. Significant differences in the distribution of negative emotions among only child parents were observed based on age, marital status, living conditions, disability, type of chronic disease, frailty status, and family support (

conclusionElderly care for parents of only children is primarily family-based. Independent risk factors for negative emotions in this group include disability, chronic disease type, and living environment.
