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.

Abstract

backgroundMalignant neoplasms are among the most common causes of disease-related death in children. Long-term chemotherapy often requires a high degree of parental involvement. Family caregivers' preparedness and capacity are critical in reducing the burden of care and improving quality of life. This study looks to examine the impact of a family-centered empowerment model (FCEM)-based intervention on the caregiving capacity and preparedness of family caregivers.

objectiveThis study aims to develop and evaluate an FCEM-based intervention to improve caregiving preparedness and capacity among family caregivers of children with malignant neoplasms. It also examines the potential effects of the intervention on self-efficacy and psychological outcomes, including depression, anxiety, and stress.

methodsThis quasi-experimental study focuses on caregivers of children with malignant neoplasms attending our hospital for the first time, implementing a 4-phase FCEM-based intervention program evaluated through questionnaires administered 3 days after admission and 3 days before discharge. Differences in caregiving preparedness, caregiving capacity, self-efficacy, and depression, anxiety, and stress scores will be assessed using independent and paired t tests, Mann-Whitney tests, and paired rank-sum tests for both within-group and between-group comparisons preintervention and postintervention.

resultsRecruitment will be conducted in 2 waves (control group: July to December 2025; intervention group: July to December 2026). It is expected that the intervention group will show significantly greater improvements in caregiving preparedness, caregiving capacity, and psychological well-being compared to the control group.

conclusionsThe findings of this study are expected to provide evidence for the development of structured family empowerment in pediatric oncology. In the future, expanding to multiple centers and conducting targeted surveys among caregivers of children with different cancer types would help validate and promote the effectiveness of family empowerment interventions.
