Background: Improving family function and resilience among cancer caregivers is a vital clinical concern requiring thorough research. Psychosocial interventions are expected to enhance family function and strengthen resilience; however, the outcomes can differ significantly, highlighting the necessity for further investigation.
Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the comparative effectiveness of psychosocial interventions in enhancing family function and resilience among caregivers of cancer patients based on data derived from randomized controlled trials.

Activated magnetic biochar (AMB) was prepared with corn stalks, reed stalks, and willow branches by simultaneous carbonization, magnetization, and activation, and used for norfloxacin removal in water. The exploration results showed that the zeta potential was positively charged at pH 2-10. These prepared activated magnetic biochars have a large specific surface area (>700m·g) and pore volume (>0.
