Uncertainty and self-efficacy in parents of a child with congenital cataract-New implications for clinical practice.
Article in Nursing open, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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.
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
aimThe aim was an in-depth exploration of uncertainty and self-efficacy among parents of a child with congenital cataract by means of two theoretical frameworks to re-design family care.
designA directed content analysis in accordance with Hsieh & Shannon, using Mishel's theory of uncertainty and Bandura's self-efficacy theory.
methodsOpen-ended, in-depth interviews were conducted with 23 parents of a child with congenital cataract; six mothers, five fathers and six couples.
resultsIn this novel study, self-efficacy was interpreted as the ability to balance between uncertainty and acceptance. The performance accomplishment of the child and parents bridges the gap between uncertainty and acceptance by reducing uncertainty, thus constituting the level of self-efficacy. Setbacks and complications increase uncertainty and reduce self-efficacy, thus performance accomplishment is a mediator of self-efficacy, while ability to master uncertainty determines the level of self-efficacy.
