Cross-sectional investigation of quality of life determinants among children with tic disorders: The roles of family environmental and clinical factors.
Article in Heliyon, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Objective: To examine the association between family environmental and clinical factors with the whole range of quality of life (QOL) in children with tic disorders (TD). Methods: A hospital-based cross-sectional study was conducted among children with TD. All participants were given a family environmental survey and scale evaluations with Yale Global Tic Severity Scale (YGTSS), Achenbach Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL) and PedsQL-Generic Core Scale of the Chinese Version (PedsQL). Variable selection and data analysis was done by the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) method and multivariate logistic regression analysis. Results: A total of 363 TD cases were included in the analysis. YGTSS scores, total CBCL score had significant negative correlations with PedsQL scores ( Conclusions: This study identifies several QOL determinants among children with TD. Clinicians should be encouraged to screen for family environmental and clinical factors in TD patients, and take tailored interventions to help TD children improve their QOL.
