Peritraumatic distress in mothers of severely ill children: a cross-sectional study.
Article in Anaesthesiology intensive therapy, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
introductionPeritraumatic distress is a syndrome that involves negative emotions, such as anxiety, helplessness and horror, experienced during and shortly after a traumatic event. The intensity of peritraumatic distress is significantly linked to the intensity of post-traumatic stress syndrome (PTSD) symptoms. The aim of the study was to study the intensity of peritraumatic distress symptoms in the mothers of severely ill children and the relationship between peritraumatic distress and psychological, socio-demographic and medical coefficients in the mothers. MATERIAL AND
methodsAn anonymous survey was performed in a group of 135 mothers of children with a perinatal medical history and mothers of children hospitalized in an intensive care unit and an oncology unit. The demographic questionnaire was compiled by the authors along with several standardized research tools.
resultsIntensity of peritraumatic distress correlates strongly positively with anxiety, ρ = 0.50; P < 0.001, and moderately positively with intrusion ρ = 0.39; P < 0.00, arousal, ρ = 0.38; P < 0.001, PTSD intensification, ρ = 0.40; P < 0.001, depression, ρ = 0.49; P < 0.001. Significant predictors of peritraumatic distress include the use of such coping strategies as acceptance, β = -0.44; P = 0.001, denial, β = 0.20; P = 0.019, planning, β = -0.26; P = 0.012 and humour, β = -0.29; P = 0.048, as well as the possibility to obtain self-worth support, β = -0.07; P = 0.029 (R2 corrected = 0,32; F(5.33) = 9.43; P < 0.001).
conclusionsCoping strategies are a potentially modifiable factor, thus, implementing prevention programmes concerning the strategies should be considered.
