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
introductionTechnology-assisted cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) is recognized as an evidence-based and cost-effective way to address psychological difficulties in children. Increasingly, these interventions are provided by staff with different levels of psychological training, such as assistant psychologists (APs). However, there is limited qualitative understanding regarding their experiences of providing technology-assisted CBT.
methodSemi-structured interviews were conducted with APs (
resultsFive overarching themes were identified: 1) positive experiences, 2) integrating Pesky gNATs with traditional CBT, 3) managing parental 'buy-in', 4) implementation complexities, and 5) future perspectives. Two subthemes were reported for each overarching theme: benefits for children, AP professional growth, facilitating engagement, different child characteristics, unclear role for parents, child autonomy, managing waitlists, external factors, design considerations and advice to future APs.
conclusionsPesky gNATs is well-received by APs in primary care, and is mostly experienced as helpful by both APs and children. However, a number of factors may be impacting the ability of APs to effectively provide the intervention.
