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

backgroundCoping mechanisms help individuals face adversity, remain stable over time, and can be generalized to various circumstances. Two types are typically distinguished: the active style, aimed at resolving problems, and the passive style, focused on emotional regulation. We hypothesized that passive coping of the primary caregiver (hereafter, primary caregiver [PC]) would affect the adaptive coping of his or her adolescent child with cancer (hereafter, adolescent with cancer [AC]).

objectiveTo analyze coping styles in adolescents with cancer (ACs) and their primary caregivers (PCs). MATERIALS AND

methodsThis was an analytical cross-sectional study including 116 pairs of an adolescent with cancer (AC) and a primary caregiver (PC). The adolescents completed the Adolescent Coping Scale (ACS), applicable to those aged 9-17 years, while the caregivers completed the Coping Strategies Inventory (CSI).

results49% (57/116) of the pairs both used the active coping style, and 14% showed the passive style in both members. No agreement was found between the coping styles of the AC and PC (Kappa = 0.15, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.13-0.14, p = 0.13). The multivariate analysis explained 61% of the variance (Nagelkerke pseudo R2 = 0.61; likelihood ratio = 191.4; p = 0.003).

conclusionsPassive coping by the primary caregiver occurred with low frequency, and active coping was favored, similar to that of the adolescent with cancer.
