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

backgroundParental cognitive-affective and behavioural responses impact on the chronification of the child's pain. Whether mothers and fathers differ in their responses and whether top-down variables (parental somatization, anxiety symptoms) and bottom-up variables (child's pain-related disability, anxiety symptoms) impact on parental responses remains unresolved.

objectives(1) A comparison of maternal and paternal somatization, anxiety, symptoms and their responses (parental catastrophizing, solicitousness) to children with chronic pain; (2) an analysis of the impact of top-down variables (parental somatization, anxiety symptoms) and bottom-up variables (child's pain-related disability, anxiety symptoms) on parental maladaptive responses.

methodsPediatric chronic pain and anxiety symptoms, parental somatization and anxiety symptoms, as well as parental responses in N =21 parent-child triads (child, mother, father; N = 21 each, total-N = 63; children: 50% female, 11-19 years, ∅15.14 years) were assessed via validated questionnaires during child and adolescent psychiatric treatment for child chronic pain.

resultsMothers and fathers did not differ in somatization, anxiety symptoms and responses. Parental catastrophizing was higher if the child suffered from anxiety symptoms and from pain-related disability. Parental solicitousness was higher if parents reported more own anxiety symptoms. Younger children and girls received more solicitous responses.

conclusionAs shown by previous studies, parental and child anxiety symptoms, but not parental gender, play a pivotal role in modulating parental maladaptive pain-related responses. This should be taken into account in prevention as well as in the treatment of children with chronic pain and their caregivers.
