e-Mental Health Intervention Preferences Among Informal Caregivers of Adults Living with Chronic Kidney Disease: Semistructured Interview Study.
Article in JMIR human factors, 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
backgroundInformal caregivers of people living with chronic kidney disease commonly experience mental health difficulties. However, there is currently limited access to scalable psychological interventions such as those using e-mental health platforms. Furthermore, there is an absence of such interventions tailored for this group of caregivers, which may limit acceptability.
objectiveTo inform future e-mental health intervention development, this study aimed to explore preferences for e-mental health interventions among informal caregivers of people living with chronic kidney disease.
methodsA total of 13 informal caregivers of people living with chronic kidney disease participated in semistructured interviews. Eligible informal caregivers lived in the United Kingdom and were recruited via nonprofit organizations and social media advertisements. Semistructured interviews followed a topic guide exploring caregivers' e-mental health intervention preferences. Data were analyzed using manifest content analysis.
resultsA total of 4 categories and 13 subcategories were generated. "Design preferences" illustrates key intervention design features that were important to caregivers, such as involving caregivers and other interest-holders in the design process. "Content preferences" describes the information caregivers valued in an intervention, such as information about chronic kidney disease and resources to support caregivers. "Support preferences" reflects the characteristics of support caregivers preferred if support was available as part of the intervention, such as peer support and providing support that accommodates individual preferences. Lastly, "Dissemination preferences" describes methods caregivers recommended to promote intervention uptake, such as engaging communication strategies and trusted and accessible sources of information.
conclusionsCaregivers identified a number of e-mental health intervention design and delivery preferences that should be considered when developing e-mental health interventions for caregivers of people living with chronic kidney disease. To ensure such interventions are acceptable, feasible, and relevant, co-design approaches should be adopted during the intervention development process.
