The temporal variations in the distribution of filial support from adult children to their aging parents across Europe and Israel.
Article in PloS one, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
The present study aimed to investigate the temporal changes in the support provided by adult children to their ageing parents, including paperwork help, household help, and personal care, and its intensity, ranging from no support to very intense support. We used latent Markov models to assess filial support transitions. Analysing data from the Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe (SHARE) covering 13 European countries and Israel between 2004 and 2022, we identified two types of filial support: stable and fluctuating. Our findings indicate that Austria, Germany, the Netherlands, Switzerland, France, Denmark, and the Czech Republic have a higher probability of maintaining stable filial support levels over the years. In contrast, Greece, Belgium, Italy, Spain, Israel, Sweden, and Poland exhibit fluctuating filial support. Additionally, Western and Northern countries, such as Denmark, the Netherlands, Austria, and Germany, tend to reach only moderate or intense support levels. In comparison, Southern and Eastern countries, like Italy, Spain, the Czech Republic, and Poland, provide support that can reach very intense levels.
