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

objectiveTo describe an electronic parent support tool for the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU), and to assess whether support requests changed with staff availability.

methodsWe implemented secure text- or email-based parent support in the NICU and in the week after discharge. Questionnaires asked whether a parent would like psychology, social work, child life, chaplain, or post-discharge nurse support. Requested referrals were placed, and customized online resources and contacts were provided. We assessed whether requests changed based on in-person resource availability.

resultsOf 378 infants in our NICU from May to December, 202 parents agreed to participate. The proportion agreeing to participate increased over time (38-59%, p = 0.012). Post-discharge nurse requests decreased over time (90-45%, p = 0.033); other requests did not change significantly.

conclusionsAn electronic tool increased parent support availability in the NICU and following discharge, even after staff were available at the bedside.
