1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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 identify interventions with the potential to foster self-compassion among family caregivers of people with dementia.

methodswe conducted a scoping review across eight databases using the search terms dementia, self-compassion, empathy, family, caregivers, and mental health. We included English-language articles addressing mindfulnessand/or compassion-based interventions. Three reviewers performed study selection with support from the Rayyan software.

resultsof the 280 records identified, six studies were included. Interventions involved yoga, mindfulness, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, self-compassion-based therapy, and mentalization. Three studies reported increased self-compassion.

conclusionsthe literature suggests that some interventions may support the development of self-compassion among caregivers of people with dementia.
