The mediating effect of quality of life between family support and advance care planning readiness of older adult patients with chronic diseases.
Article in Frontiers in public health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07768033 (THE EFFECT OF CHAIR-ASSISTED YOGA PRACTICE ON SLEEP QUALITY AND PAIN LEVELS IN ELDERLY INDIVIDUALS LIVING IN NURSING HOMES), which is not on this 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.
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.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the mediating effect of quality of life (QoL) between family support and advance care planning (ACP) readiness among older adult patients with chronic diseases, thereby providing evidence for nursing administrators to strengthen family support and promote ACP preparedness. Methods: From November 2024 to February 2025, a total of 262 older adult patients with chronic diseases were recruited via convenience sampling from seven tertiary hospitals located in Guangdong, Hainan, Sichuan, Heilongjiang, and Hubei provinces. Data were collected using a general information questionnaire, the EuroQoL-5 Dimension (EQ-5D-5L) scale, the Family Support Scale, and the Advance Care Planning Readiness Scale. Results: The median EQ-5D-5L utility score was 0.831 (IQR: 0.640-0.942), the family support score was 12.00 (IQR: 12.00-13.00), and the mean ACP readiness score was 81.97 ± 9.88. Family support was found to be positively correlated with ACP readiness ( Conclusion: Quality of life plays a mediating role between family support and ACP readiness in older adult patients with chronic diseases. Nursing administrators should prioritize improving quality of life and fostering supportive family environments to enhance ACP preparedness.
