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: This study analyzes the relationship between family resilience, social support, and family function of elderly patients with COPD. It explores the mediating effect of family resilience between social support and family function and the influence path among them, so as to provide evidence for medical staff to formulate targeted intervention measures and improve family function of elderly patients with COPD. Methods: Using a convenience sampling, 535 elderly patients with COPD were recruited in the respiratory and critical care departments of six tertiary hospitals in Ningxia, China from August 2022 to September 2023. The participants were assessed by general information questionnaire, family resilience assessment scale, social support assessment scale, family density, and adaptability scale. Pearson correlation analysis was used to evaluate the correlation between variables, and Model 4 in PROCESS 4.2 plugin was used to explore the mediating role of family resilience in the relationship between social support and family function. Results: Pearson correlation analysis showed that family function was positively correlated with social support ( Conclusion: Family resilience plays a partial mediating role in social support and family function of elderly patients with COPD, and medical staff should pay attention to the integration of social support intervention and family resilience intervention to better improve family function of patients.
