The Other Sibling: A Systematic Review of the Mental Health Effects on a Healthy Sibling of a Child With a Chronic Disease.
Review in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
The Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) defines chronic diseases broadly as conditions that last over one year and require ongoing medical attention or limit activities of daily living or both. The diagnosis of a child with a chronic disease affects parents' mental health and functioning, included in this are the siblings of this child. The impact on a sibling of a child with chronic disease involves higher risks of anxiety, depression, feelings of worry about the brother or sister's future, and social problems.Three databases search were performed, and 16 articles were assessed in this systematic review that complies with inclusion and exclusion criteria.The siblings of those with chronic illnesses have higher reported emotional, behavioral, and social problems than those with healthy siblings. More research and studies with control groups and larger samples could contribute to a better understanding of the long-term effects of having a sibling with a chronic disease.
