From ACEs to early relational health: Implications for clinical practice.
Review in Paediatrics & child health, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 papers.
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
Children grow and develop in an environment of relationships. Safe, stable, nurturing relationships help build resilience and buffer the negative impact of adverse experiences. Promoting relational health in clinical practice shifts the focus from adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) to positive childhood experiences (PCEs). This approach evaluates a family's strengths and assets, and can be incorporated into both well-child and subspecialty care. While the optimal window for such interventions is in the prenatal period or as early as possible within the first 3 years of life, it is never too late to start. This statement describes how clinicians can bring a relational health approach to any medical encounter by understanding: what toxic stress is and how it can affect the developing brain, family relationships, and child development; how positive relationships, experiences, and behaviours can help buffer such effects and build resilience; observable signs of relational health and risk in parent-child interactions; the attributes of trustful, therapeutic relationships with families; and how to optimize these benefits through conversation and clinical practice.
