Spouse and Child Caregivers' Experiences of Lucid Episodes in Dementia: A Mixed Methods Approach.

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 and Objectives: Lucid episodes (LEs) in people living with late-stage dementia have been reported anecdotally. However, how this seemingly unexpected phenomenon is experienced by family caregivers is less known. Focusing on the two most common groups of informal caregivers, spouses and adult children, this study examined variability in family caregivers' experiences with LEs-whether they exhibit differential appraisals of and responses to LEs. Research Design and Methods: Using a sample of former/bereaved and current family caregivers from UsAgainstAlzheimer's A-LIST, we conducted an online survey of spouse and child caregivers ( Results: Overall, child caregivers were more likely to witness a LE than spouse caregivers. Among former/bereaved caregivers who witnessed a LE ( Discussion and Implications: Differences between spouses and adult children in their experiences with LEs are related to their different caregiving contexts, including relationship history, living arrangements, expectations, motivations, and caregiving resources.
