Included studies encompassed quantitative, qualitative, and mixed methods approaches. During the study selection process, we excluded data on intervention effectiveness and studies not published in English. The quality of the studies was evaluated using the Mixed Methods Appraisal Tool. Evidence was summarized narratively.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec id=\"S1478951525000082_sec3c\">\n                    <jats:title>Participants<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Participants in this study are family caregivers who take care of dementia patients.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec id=\"S1478951525000082_sec4d\">\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We included data from 12 studies in our analysis. The majority of these investigations were carried out in Western countries. The research primarily involved spousal or adult child caregivers and centered on PDG. We included validated measures of PDG in each study.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec id=\"S1478951525000082_sec5e\">\n                    <jats:title>Significance of results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Among the reviewed studies, five reported on coping strategies, while seven addressed coping resources. Overall, the findings indicated that the application of coping strategies, specifically positive coping strategies, is effective in alleviating PDG and mitigating the effects of caregiving burden on PDG. Coping resources \u2013 including self-efficacy, sense of coherence, and support from friends and family \u2013 appear to have a beneficial impact in reducing PDG. Additionally, the quality of relationships with friends and family members was found to be a significant factor. Moreover, spiritual and religious beliefs, along with community faith, have been identified as crucial elements in alleviating grief experienced by caregivers.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec id=\"S1478951525000082_sec6f\">\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Knowing what coping strategies and resources are beneficial to decrease PDG experiences among dementia caregivers.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1017\/s1478951525000082","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,4,2]],"date-time":"2025-04-02T05:36:33Z","timestamp":1743572193000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1017\/policypage","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["A systematic review of coping and pre-death grief among dementia family caregivers"],"prefix":"10.1017","volume":"23","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9010-5305","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Yi-Qi","family":"Wangliu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"The Chinese University of Hong Kong"},{"name":"Yunnan University, Kunming"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7699-393X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Run-Ping","family":"Che","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"The Chinese University of Hong Kong"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"56","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,4,2]]},"reference":[{"key":"S1478951525000082_ref28","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1442-2018.2005.00213.x"},{"key":"S1478951525000082_ref32","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/s12877-017-0523-3"},{"key":"S1478951525000082_ref34","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/000276402236676"},{"key":"S1478951525000082_ref33","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s12126-012-9165-0"},{"key":"S1478951525000082_ref41","unstructured":"Popay, J , Roberts, H , Sowden, A , et al.
