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
Objective: To explore latent profiles of dyadic coping among patients with chronic heart failure and their primary caregivers, and to analyze the demographic characteristics and factors correlated with different profiles. This study aims to provide a reference for healthcare professionals in developing personalized dyadic coping intervention plans. Methods: A convenience sample of 320 dyads (patients with chronic heart failure and their primary caregivers) was recruited from the Department of Cardiovascular Medicine at a tertiary Grade A hospital in Suzhou between December 2024 and November 2025. Data were collected using questionnaires on general information, the Dyadic Coping Inventory (DCI), and the Self-Regulatory Fatigue Scale (SRF-S). Latent profile analysis (LPA) was employed to identify distinct profiles of dyadic coping within the dyads. Multinomial logistic regression was used to assess the influence of various factors on profile membership. Results: The mean dyadic coping scores were 125.28 ± 16.77 for patients and 126.08 ± 17.13 for caregivers. LPA identified four distinct latent profiles: Moderate Coping Harmony Group (46.25%), Low Coping Alienation Group (20.31%), Moderate-Low Coping Stress Group (19.38%) and High Coping Synergy Group (14.06%). Significant differences were found among the profiles regarding the patient's marital status, monthly household income per capita, NYHA functional class, and self-regulatory fatigue score, as well as the caregiver's gender, BMI, education level, caregiving duration, caregiving confidence, communication frequency with the patient, understanding of the patient's condition, and self-regulatory fatigue score ( Conclusion: Dyadic coping in chronic heart failure patient-caregiver dyads is heterogeneous. Healthcare providers should develop targeted interventions tailored to the specific profile characteristics and influencing factors, treating the patient and caregiver as an integrated unit to enhance dyadic coping for both parties.
