Goals of Care Among Caregivers of Youths With Type 1 Diabetes.

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
objectiveTo characterize goals of care (GOCs) among caregivers of youths with type 1 diabetes (T1D) and evaluate psychosocial factors associated with caregiver priorities using a structured, narrative-based GOC framework adapted from the 3-Act Model. RESEARCH DESIGN AND
methodsWe conducted semistructured interviews with 30 caregivers of diverse youths with T1D. Interviews used a modified 3-Act Model to elicit GOCs. Caregivers and youths (aged ≥8 years) completed validated measures of diabetes distress, quality of life, psychological symptoms, caregiver burden, resilience, and family conflict. Qualitative data were analyzed using reflexive thematic analysis supported by a hybrid human-artificial intelligence coding approach. Quantitative data were summarized descriptively and compared across respondent type and age-group.
resultsThree major themes emerged: health management, emotional and social well-being, and personal development. Caregivers consistently prioritized emotional health, normalization, and fostering of independence, often emphasizing these above meeting glycemic targets. Caregivers of youths aged 8-12 years reported significantly higher diabetes distress relative to youth self-reports. Caregivers perceived youth diabetes-related symptoms as less burdensome than described in youth self-reports (
conclusionsCaregivers of youths with T1D identify goals that extend beyond glycemic metrics to emphasize emotional well-being, autonomy, and quality of life. Integrating structured GOC discussions into routine diabetes care may improve alignment between families and clinical teams, supporting person-centered, developmentally informed diabetes management.
