Barriers to Education for Children With Neurodisabilities in a Developing Country.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Despite having equal rights to education, children with neurodisability (CWND) continue to face a myriad of barriers to education. This cross-sectional survey aimed to investigate the barriers to education among CWND who attended follow-up at a Malaysian tertiary hospital. Sixty-two caregivers of CWND completed a questionnaire which included the 'Washington Group/United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) Child Functioning Module', type of schooling and open-ended questions for barriers to education. The out-of-school rate was 16/62 (26%). The level of schooling (i.e. not in school, special education or mainstream class) was strongly associated with difficulties in mobility, self-care, communication, controlling behaviour and getting along with other children. Five themes identified by caregivers as barriers to education were 'school infrastructure', 'inclusive opportunity, staffing and teacher's training', 'social environment', 'child's intrinsic factor' and 'practical limitations'. Practical solutions to overcome the significant barriers to education are required to address the unmet educational needs of CWND.
