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

introductionCertified child life specialists (CCLSs) are health care team members with advanced knowledge of child development. CCLSs can help establish a trajectory of engagement in diabetes self-management beginning in early childhood.

methodThis article describes the child life interventions delivered in a pediatric diabetes clinic from 2003 to 2018.

resultsOver the 16 years, there were 43,549 child life interventions, grouped into six categories: medical play, developmentally appropriate recreational play, therapeutic activities, health education, coping and coaching support, and procedural support. Child life interventions occurred within the pediatric clinic in either the playroom, laboratory, or examination rooms. The CCLS team also organizes other events throughout each year, such as the Teddy Bear Clinic, to maintain child and family engagement. DISCUSSION: CCLSs may improve the experience of a child living with diabetes, setting the stage for a future that maintains engagement in self-care and encourages good health.
