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.

Abstract
objectiveVarious psychological factors play a role in the development of nocturnal enuresis (NE) which causes significant distress both on children and their parents. However, current studies cannot attribute a role to the psychiatric conditions that cause or result from NE. This study aims to reveal some psychiatric parameters related to the parents of patients with NE which may play a role in the etiopathogenesis of NE.
methodsSeventy-nine parents of primary 53 NE children and 78 parents of 44 healthy children were enrolled to the study. Parents of children with daytime voiding symptoms, additional comorbidity, or secondary enuresis were excluded from the study. Age- and sex-matched parents of healthy children with the absence of voiding symptoms were included as the control group. Parental Reflective Functioning (RF) Questionnaire, Interpersonal Emotion Regulation (ER) Questionnaire, and Zarit Caregiver Burden Scale were recorded to measure psychiatric conditions.
resultsParents of children with NE showed significantly poorer RF and ER abilities compared to the control group. Moreover, the perceived caregiver burden was also significantly higher in parents of NE patients. Correlation analyses also showed that RF and ER are negatively correlated with caregiver burden.
conclusionThis study revealed that the parents of primary NE patients may have difficulty mentalizing and ER in interpersonal relationships. These difficulties may be a cause or a consequence of the NE. In addition, our findings showed that parents of NE patients perceive more caregiving burden. Therefore, it may be advisable for parents of NE patients to seek psychological counseling.
