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

backgroundThis study aimed to assess caregivers' experiences and perceptions of applying lip taping as presurgical orthopedic therapy (PSO) for infants with a cleft lip and palate.

methodsA retrospective survey was conducted, inviting parents to respond to a series of structured questions between September 2022 and June 2023. The questionnaire focused on evaluating parents' experience with lip taping, a crucial component of PSO. Descriptive statistics and the Chi-square test were employed to analyze relationships between categorical variables.

resultsOf the 157 participants, overall, 122 completed the survey, forming the dataset for analysis. A majority (90.0%) reported sufficient experience in using lip taping and no major difficulties with lip taping application. Caregivers with higher education levels exhibited a significantly positive correlation (

conclusionsWhile a vast majority expressed positive experiences with lip taping as a presurgical treatment, continuous, tailored education on cleft lip and palate is imperative. This education should be directed towards caregivers and individuals offering direct support to parents of children with CLP, ensuring optimal care and preparation for surgical treatment.
