Family-Centered Management of Birth Defects Diagnosis and Referral in Hospital Settings in Florida.
Article in Maternal and child health journal, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
objectiveFamilies' experiences of children diagnosed with birth defects vary greatly in navigating care systems and there is no comprehensive national protocol or standards for support and referral processes at birth. This study builds on the results of previous literature examining these variations in access to care. A survey was conducted among providers from across Florida to determine current practices and recommendations for providing information, medical/community referrals, discharge planning, and family-centered care in hospital settings.
methodsFifty-four hospital health care providers across Florida completed an online survey for 11 congenital conditions through closed and open-ended responses. Survey questions were based on a literature review that focused on identifying and understanding the current practices related to providing information, support and referrals to families of infants born with birth defects. Analyses included descriptive statistics, and content analysis of the open-ended responses.
resultsSurvey respondents identified key personnel, practices, and challenges related to family-centered care in birth hospitals. While information and referral are often provided to the family by the physician or nurse, other health care providers and community agencies also play an important role. Processes for information and referral vary by birth defect; however common structures that support Family-centered management include written materials for family information and support, participatory discharge planning, interdisciplinary communication and coordination, and provider training/awareness.
conclusionThrough additional resources, staffing, increased communication, education, and coordination between health care providers, families and hospitals improvements can be made in the management of birth defect diagnosis and referrals. Best practices must be agreed upon, operationalized, disseminated, and evaluated so that parents consistently receive sensitive, individualized, timely information and referrals relative to their child's condition.
