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
objectiveTo assess the factors related to perioperative state anxiety in paediatric patients and their parents.
methodsA cohort study was conducted on paediatric patients 9-17 years of age, who underwent the modified Ravitch procedure (
resultsPreoperative anxiety in the paediatric patients was positively correlated with their trait anxiety (β = 0.47; 95% CI: 0.29 to 0.64) and preoperative parental anxiety (β = 0.24; 95% CI: 0.07 to 0.42). The high level of preoperative anxiety (vs. low and moderate) (β = 0.40; 95% CI: 0.22 to 0.58), trait anxiety (β = 0.22; 95% CI: 0.04 to 0.40) and average postoperative pain at rest (β = 0.18; 95% CI: 0.01 to 0.34) had a positive impact on the postoperative anxiety in patients. However, the patients' age was negatively correlated with postoperative anxiety (β = -0.19; 95% CI: -0.35 to -0.02). Three variables were found to predict preoperative parental anxiety: their trait anxiety (β = 0.41; 95% CI: 0.23 to 0.59), female gender (β = 0.18; 95% CI: 0.002 to 0.36) and the intravenous route for the postoperative pain management in the patients (β = -0.18; 95% CI: -0.36 to -0.001). The parental postoperative anxiety was influenced by their trait anxiety (β = 0.24; 95% CI: 0.04 to 0.43), preoperative anxiety in patients (β = 0.21; 95% CI: 0.02 to 0.40) and female gender of children (β = 0.19; 95% CI: 0.001 to 0.39).
conclusionsTrait anxiety was a strong factor positively affecting the perioperative state anxiety. In addition, paediatric patient anxiety before surgery was related to their parents' anxiety, and, after surgery, this was associated with high preoperative anxiety, pain and age. The parents' anxiety before surgery was influenced by gender and the type of postoperative analgesia in the patients, while, after surgery, this was influenced by the patients' preoperative anxiety/gender.
