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

objectiveThis study aims to investigate the relationship between perceived stress and depressive symptoms among caregivers of children with enterostomy, as well as the mediating role of resilience and the moderating effect of perceived social support. The findings are anticipated to provide a scientific basis for promoting the rehabilitation of children, enhancing the mental health status of caregivers of children and developing clinical psychological nursing interventions.

methodsA convenience sampling method was utilised to recruit 236 caregivers of children who had undergone enterostomy surgery and returned for follow-up visits. Various assessment scales were employed, including the Perceived Stress Scale, Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale, Depression Screening Scale and Perceived Social Support Scale. Pearson correlation analysis was performed to explore relationships among variables, while Process version 4.1 was applied to test mediation and moderation effects.

resultsA highly significant positive correlation was identified between perceived stress and depression among caregivers (r = 0.450, p < 0.01). Conversely, a conspicuously negative correlation was detected between perceived stress and resilience (r = -0.352, p < 0.01). Both resilience (r = -0.774, p < 0.01) and perceived social support (r = -0.416, p < 0.01) demonstrated significant negative correlations with levels of depression. Furthermore, resilience functioned as a mediator in the relationship between perceived stress and depression, with the mediating effect accounting for 47.2% (95% CI: 0.140, 0.323). Additionally, perceived social support moderated the pathway from resilience to depression within the mediation model (β = -0.206, p < 0.01; 95% CI: -0.411, -0.003).

conclusionElevated levels of resilience and enhanced perceived social support from the environment may serve as effective strategies for mitigating perceived stress and depression. Additionally, these factors contribute to improving mental well-being among caregivers of children with enterostomy. PATIENT/PUBLIC CONTRIBUTIONS: The caregivers of children with enterostomy were surveyed to collect relevant data.
