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

This study aims to understand the relationship between psychological resilience and social support in family resilience and demoralization syndrome (DS) in decompensated cirrhotic patients and verify whether there is a parallel mediation effect. A cross-sectional design was adopted, and a questionnaire was administered to 260 patients with decompensated cirrhosis in Jinan, Shandong Province, China. The Mandarin Version of the Demoralization Scale (DS-MV) was used to assess DS. Spearman's correlation was used to analyze the relationship between family resilience, DS, psychological resilience, and social support, and predictors of DS were explored using multiple linear regression. Parallel mediation effect analysis was performed using a bootstrap test. The proportion of patients with severe DS was 18.46% of those with decompensated cirrhosis. Spearman correlation analysis demonstrated that DS was negatively correlated with psychological resilience, family resilience, and social support (
