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

Background: Family caregivers are central to home-based care for diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs), but domain-specific knowledge gaps may shape attitudes toward holistic family support. Objective: To examine caregivers' knowledge and attitudes across physical, psychological, social, and spiritual domains of DFU support and identified predictors of total attitude. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted among 274 family caregivers at a tertiary referral hospital in Batam City, Indonesia, from March to July 2024. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, Friedman tests, Spearman correlations, and multiple regression with robust standard errors. All statistical analyses were conducted in R version 4.5.0. Results: The mean total knowledge score was 15.42 (SD = 1.44), and the mean total attitude score was 62.13 (SD = 8.51). Knowledge was highest in the physical domain (M = 86.34%, SD = 3.17) and lowest in the psychological domain (M = 17.82%, SD = 6.67). Friedman tests showed significant differences across knowledge domains, chi-square(3) = 783.668, Conclusion: Caregiver attitudes toward holistic DFU support were strongly associated with domain-specific knowledge. Family-centered education could usefully address the physical, psychological, social, and spiritual needs of caregivers. Nurses could consider screening for domain-specific knowledge gaps, particularly in psychological support, and offering culturally sensitive family education to strengthen caregiver readiness for home-based DFU care.
