Influence of family support, self-care performance and symptom clusters on quality of life among individuals with Parkinson's disease: A cross-sectional descriptive study.
Article in Journal of Korean gerontological nursing, 2026. 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
purposeThis study explored the influence of family support, self-care performance and symptom cluster on quality of life (QoL) among individuals with Parkinson's disease (PD).
methodsA cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted with 132 participants who were over 40 years old and diagnosed with PD from a tertiary hospital in Seoul between September 5 and November 7, 2024. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, factor analysis, t-tests, ANOVA, correlation, and hierarchical multiple regression analysis.
resultsThe explanatory power of the final regression model was 71% (F=17.72, p<.001). The most significant factors affecting QoL were motor symptom clusters (t=4.38, p<.001), emotional/emotion regulation clusters (t=2.90, p=.004), time since diagnosis (t=-3.11, p=.002), having a spouse as the primary caregiver (t=2.55, p=.012), self-care performance in the daily life management domain (t=-2.35, p=.020), and self-care performance in the diet domain (t=-2.01, p=.046).
conclusionSymptom-cluster-informed, family-centered nursing-integrating motor & emotional management, dietary and daily-life self-care coaching, and early diagnostic pathways with caregiver education-is essential to improve QoL in PD.
