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
backgroundPublic health nurse home visiting is a promising approach for addressing the complex needs of families at risk of child maltreatment. The Colorado Nurse Support Program advances service provision by using evidence-based practices to provide tailored assessment and intervention to low-income, primiparous, and multiparous families with children under 18 years of age identified as high risk by county human service systems.
objectivesThis study aimed to test the effects of the Nurse Support Program on child protective services case characteristics between Nurse Support Program families and a demographically comparable reference group of families and evaluate changes in parenting outcomes from pre- to postprogram involvement for Nurse Support Program families.
methodsWe used a matched comparison group quasi-experimental design in which families in the Nurse Support Program ( n = 48) were compared to families ( n = 150) who were identified using administrative data from Colorado's Comprehensive Child Welfare Information System. Outcomes were child protective case characteristics (child protection referrals, open assessments, founded assessments, open cases, and children's placement in out-of-home care) and parenting outcomes.
resultsNurse Support Program families were less likely to have a child protection case opened or have their child placed in out-of-home care. There were no significant between-group differences in child protection referrals, open assessments, or founded assessments. Families in the Nurse Support Program showed improvements in parenting outcomes over time. DISCUSSION: Findings suggest that the Nurse Support Program is a successful public health nurse home-visiting approach to promote positive parenting and family preservation among families with complex needs. Implementing tailored public health nurse home-visiting programs, such as the Nurse Support Program, should continue to be evaluated and supported to mitigate the public health risk of child maltreatment.
