A Prospective Study of Family Engagement for Prevention of Central Line-associated Blood Stream Infections.
Article in Pediatric quality & safety. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
introductionWe sought to determine if a family-centered care (FCC) handout intervention designed to encourage family engagement (FE) in the prevention of central line-associated bloodstream infections (CLABSIs) would alter parental perceptions of FCC and improve staff compliance with CLABSI bundle components.
methodsA prospective quasiexperimental study of 121 legal guardians of children with a central venous catheter (CVC) admitted to the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU). Baseline (n = 59) and intervention (n = 62) groups of parents completed an 18-question online survey assessing basic CLABSI care practices and FCC principles. The intervention group received an FE handout before completing the survey with information about CLABSI prevention practices designed to encourage active participation in their child's CVC care.
resultsIndependent sample
conclusionsEducating parents on CLABSI prevention strategies and encouraging family participation in CVC care was associated with improved parental perceptions of participation in their child's care, medical team's listening, attention, honesty, and explanation of treatment plans and was associated with an increase in staff compliance with CLABSI maintenance bundle practices.
