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

aimTo explore the structural relationships among perceived social support, self-efficacy, coping styles, and resilience in older patients with Parkinson's disease (PD).

methodsThis study is a cross-sectional study. A total of 220 older patients with PD were recruited from hospitals in China using convenience sampling. Patients completed a standardized questionnaire. Structural equation modeling (SEM) was employed to test the hypothesized relationships.

resultsThe resilience of older patients with PD was at a moderately low level. SEM results indicated that resilience was positively associated with perceived social support, confrontation coping, and self-efficacy, and negatively correlated with acceptance-resignation coping. Confrontation coping and self-efficacy partially mediated the relationship between perceived social support and resilience. A significant serial mediation effect (confrontation coping→self-efficacy) was also observed.

conclusionsConfrontation coping and self-efficacy are key mechanisms linking perceived social support to resilience. Interventions targeting confrontation coping strategies and enhancing self-efficacy may improve resilience among older patients with PD.
