Article in Journal of multidisciplinary healthcare, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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: Caregivers of patients with palliative and chronic conditions often experience complex physical, emotional, and social burdens. These burdens impact not only their well-being but also the continuity and quality of care provided. Purpose: This study aimed to identify the level of caregiver burden and factors associated with it in families caring for members with palliative conditions and chronic illnesses. Patients and Methods: A cross-sectional study of 71 caregivers was conducted using convenience sampling. Data were collected using the FATCOD-B, knowledge toward palliative care, and Zarit Burden Interview (ZBI). Data were analyzed using the Rasch model and bivariate tests. Results: A high burden was reported by 50.7% of caregivers, while 39.4% and 9.9% experienced moderate and low burden, respectively. The variables of marital status, length of care, the availability of health insurance, and caregiver attitude showed a significant relationship to caregiver burden ( Conclusion: Psychosocial and structural factors influence caregiver burden. These findings highlight the need for integrated interventions, including psychosocial support, financial security, and caregiver education, to mitigate burden in this population.
