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

Objective: To translate and evaluate the psychometric validation of the Persian version of the Care Evaluation Scale-2.0 Short (CES2.0-S) for bereaved family members of cancer patients. Methods: This methodological study was conducted in Tehran in 2024. The scale was translated using forward-backward translation. Face validity was assessed through cognitive interviews with 10 bereaved family members, and content validity was evaluated by 10 palliative care experts using the Content Validity Index. Construct validity was examined through exploratory factor analysis and convergent validity. Reliability was assessed by internal consistency and test-retest stability over a two-week interval. Results: A total of 237 bereaved family members participated. Exploratory factor analysis identified two factors- support provided by the care team and access to healthcare services -explaining 63.4% of the total variance. The Persian CES2.0-S demonstrated strong internal consistency (Cronbach's α ​= ​0.89) and test-retest reliability (ICC ​= ​0.80). Convergent validity was supported by significant correlations with the Good Death Questionnaire-Short Form ( Conclusions: The Persian CES2.0-S is a valid and reliable instrument for assessing structures and processes of end-of-life care among bereaved family members of cancer patients. Its use may help identify areas requiring improvement and guide strategies to enhance the quality of end-of-life care, an essential goal of palliative care.
