Interventions to support young carers/supporters of people living with dementia: a mixed methods systematic review.
Synthesis in International journal of qualitative studies on health and well-being, 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
purposeDespite children being young carers for people living with dementia globally, and evidence suggesting they need more support, there is limited research evaluating best practice for dementia-care related interventions for children. The purpose of this work was therefore to comprehensively summarise the existing literature by synthesising studies appraising existing child-focused and dementia-care relevant interventions.
methodA mixed methods systematic review with a convergent integrated synthesis approach. Four databases were systematically searched from 1st January 2013 to 9th February 2024. Qualitative, quantitative, and mixed methods studies evaluating any intervention programme that aimed to improve children's understanding and/or support for people living with dementia were included.
resultsSeventeen studies, evaluating 15 different interventions (1,345 participants), were eligible for inclusion. Extracted data were inductively synthesised into 18 categories, forming six integrated findings relating to what makes interventions useful for helping children to understand and/or support people living with dementia.
conclusionsThe findings can inform the development of interventions for children with dementia care responsibilities, and further robust research.
