No study focused specifically on the experiences of family members when witnessing the diminishing drinking of dying relatives. However, research about diminishing drinking was identified within studies broadly focusing on cancer cachexia, clinical decision-making about hydration and\/or nutrition and support in a hospice context. The research indicates that family members\u2019 experiences of diminishing drinking vary with their views about the significance of drinking, dying well and their expectations of themselves and healthcare professionals.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>While some understanding of the topic can be inferred from research in related areas, there is a paucity of information specifically about family members\u2019 experiences when witnessing the diminishing drinking of a dying relative.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1177\/0269216319859728","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,7,1]],"date-time":"2019-07-01T05:17:36Z","timestamp":1561958256000},"page":"1146-1157","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":13,"title":["The experiences of family members witnessing the diminishing drinking of a dying relative: An adapted meta-narrative literature review"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"33","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5330-0002","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Annie","family":"Pettifer","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Coventry University, Coventry, UK"},{"name":"International Observatory on End of Life Care, Lancaster University, Lancaster, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Katherine","family":"Froggatt","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"International Observatory on End of Life Care, Lancaster University, Lancaster, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Sean","family":"Hughes","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"International Observatory on End of Life Care, Lancaster University, Lancaster, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2019,7,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-0269216319859728","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.7748\/ns2001.10.16.4.33.c3095"},{"key":"bibr2-0269216319859728","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jpainsymman.2010.11.022"},{"key":"bibr3-0269216319859728","volume-title":"More care, less pathway: a review of the Liverpool care pathway","author":"Neuberger J","year":"2013"},{"key":"bibr4-0269216319859728","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Baillie J, Anagnostou D, Sivell S, et al.
