Characterizing stressors, coping strategies, and intervention preferences related to brain health among cardiac arrest survivors and their family caregivers.
Article in Aging & mental health, 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
objectivesTo (1) identify cardiac arrest (CA) survivors' and their caregivers' stressors and coping and compensation strategies related to brain health and (2) gather feedback on a proposed brain health lifestyle intervention for this population.
methodsWe conducted two focus groups with dyads of CA survivors and their caregivers (
resultsDyads described several sources of brain health stress including survivors' cognitive changes, fear of further decline, and concerns about caregiver stress. Dyads reported using coping strategies including peer support, professional mental health treatment, acceptance strategies, and physical activity, and compensation strategies including delegating more tasks to the caregiver, using organizational aids, visual aids, and pacing strategies. Dyads endorsed proposed program content and recommended additional content on nutrition and diet, managing emotional distress, and psychoeducation on the impact of CA on the brain.
conclusionSurvivors and caregivers experience ongoing stressors related to brain health, though they develop coping and compensation strategies that merit further study.
