[COVID-19 hygiene measures at an inpatient CI therapy center for children from the parents' perspective].
Article in HNO, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundDue to the COVID-19 pandemic, all essential treatment must adhere to strict health and hygiene protocols. New measures have been introduced in CI treatment centres in order to safely accommodate families and continue to provide effective follow-up CI therapy for children implanted with CIs.
objectivesThe aim of this study was to document, over the course of the pandemic, how patients' parents viewed the likelihood and danger of infection and how necessary they thought the newly implemented protocols were. MATERIALS AND
methodsAll parents of children implanted with CIs who participated in therapy at the CIC treatment centre between August and November 2020 (N = 255) were requested to fill out a questionnaire anonymously following their stay.
results255 questionnaires were distributed, 83 (32.5%) of which were filled out. During the course of the study, there was an increase in the parents' perceived risk of infection. Simultaneously, fewer parents felt well protected at the CIC. According to parents, the new hygiene protocols at the CIC did not negatively affect treatment. However, many parents noted that their interactions with other patient families had been better prior to introduction of the hygiene protocols.
conclusionsThe CIC`s hygiene protocols were well received. However, data analysis over the course of the study suggests that hygiene protocols were not sufficient to prevent fear of infection in light of increasing rate of infection.
