Article in PEC innovation, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Objective: To provide an overview of the development of the Preparing Heart and Mind™ (PHM™) care program designed for parents with a prenatal diagnosis of critical congenital heart disease (CCHD) and describe issues of parental concern, caregiving competencies, and type and timing of PHM™ topics. Methods: Guided participation theory underpinned intervention development and a mixed methods pilot of a novel, nurse-guided mHealth intervention. Parents were enrolled from the third trimester of pregnancy-12 weeks postnatally. Online surveys, session transcripts, and app use were descriptively analyzed. Results: The sample included 19 mothers/birthing persons and 15 caregiving partners randomized to the intervention group. In 49 sessions, mental health/wellbeing (94%) and condition-specific information (86%) were top issues. Many caregiving competencies were developed, with mothers/birthing persons often focused on feeding (86%). Regulating emotions and co-parenting consistently needed support. PHM™ topics of preparing for hospitalization (47%) and handling uncertainty (45%) were most discussed. Two cases further characterize findings. Conclusion: Nurse-parent collaborative understanding of issues emphasized the need for mental health assessments. Prenatal intervention opportunities were underscored through discussions of caregiving issues and PHM™ topics. Innovation: PHM™ represents an innovative approach that holds promise for supporting parents' mental health and caregiving needs outside the healthcare setting.
