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

objectivesCongenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) is a congenital malformation in which the diaphragm and lungs are underdeveloped, leading to cardiorespiratory and other problems. This study aimed to explore professionals' views regarding prenatal counselling in CDH.

methodsA qualitative study was performed among healthcare professionals involved in the care of CDH patients in Radboud university medical center Amalia Children's Hospital. Semi-structured interviews were conducted until saturation was achieved. Transcripts were qualitatively analysed to gain insight into professionals' views regarding counselling.

resultsEighteen professionals with various backgrounds were included. The professionals agreed that the first counselling session should be soon after diagnosis and additional sessions should be offered. Concerning counselling content, participants considered explanation of the diagnosis, prognosis, short- and long-term consequences, treatment options and practical aspects important. As for decision-making about possible termination of pregnancy, all professionals emphasised the importance of the parental role, but the preferred parental involvement varied. Regarding practical aspects, preferred counsellors were a neonatologist, obstetrician, paediatric surgeon and/or medical social worker. Participants emphasised that the counselling should be adjusted to parents' needs.

conclusionsThis study gained insight into professionals' views regarding the timeline, content, decision-making process, and practical aspects of prenatal counselling in CDH.
