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

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of a self-learning package on mothers' knowledge and practices towards caring for their children with phenylketonuria. A pre/post quasi-experimental study was conducted, including 128 mothers of children diagnosed with phenylketonuria. A specifically designed and validated questionnaire was used to evaluate mothers' knowledge and reported practices toward their children before and after participating in the educational program. There was a highly positive association between knowledge and reported practice (.674 and .398). The self-learning package had a positive impact on mothers' knowledge and practices. Consequently, educational programs should be provided to all mothers of newly diagnosed cases to improve their children's adherence to the therapeutic regimen.
