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

Introduction: Family caregivers of people with dementia face an elevated risk of abusive behaviors. However, the psychological association linking caring attitudes to abuse risk-specifically the indirect role of resilience-remains underexplored in non-Western contexts. This cross-sectional study examined whether psychological resilience shows an indirect association in this relationship among Chinese dementia family caregivers. Method: This cross-sectional study recruited 133 family caregivers from a dementia research center in central China (June 2023-May 2024). Participants completed measures of resilience, caring attitudes, and abuse risk. Data were analyzed using correlations, binomial logistic regression, and mediation analysis (PROCESS Macro, Model 4; 5,000 bootstrap samples). Results: 66.2% of caregivers screened positive for abuse risk. More positive caring attitudes and higher resilience were each significantly correlated with lower abuse risk ( Conclusion: Psychological resilience shows a significant partial and differential indirect association between caring attitudes and abuse risk. These findings suggest a dual-focus intervention-addressing acute distress while building resilience-as a hypothesis-generating strategy for abuse prevention in China's filial-piety-based dementia care.
