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

BACKGROUND & PURPOSE: Relatively little is known about the parents' challenges and coping in making decisions for children with complex, life-threatening conditions. Therefore, this secondary analysis aimed to explore the challenges and coping between parents while navigating their decision-making by focusing on their interpersonal relationship. DESIGN &

methodData from 38 interviews with parent couples of 20 infants diagnosed with congenital heart disease or receiving hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) were analyzed using a conventional content analysis.

resultsFindings revealed the key challenges between parents in decision-making and how they cope with the challenges together as represented by two main themes of "Challenges faced by parents in making decisions together" and "Parents' collaborative coping with the challenges of making shared decisions." DISCUSSION: The majority of challenges that parents face in making decisions were closely related to the nature of the children's complex and life-threatening illness and uncertainty. However, supportive partner helped coping and decision-making, indicating the vital role of spouses in making decisions for their ill child. IMPLICATIONS: Assessing parents' marital relationship, providing enough information to ensure that both parents clearly understand the information, and encouraging parents to openly communicate with each other are recommended. Educating healthcare providers to support parents to partner together in shared decision-making is also required. Last, legislating laws that mandate providing psychological counseling services and developments of community-based interventions to support parental relationship would improve parents' shared decision-making. Further research on enhancing parental relationships in the context of a child's illness is required.
