'Will anybody listen?' Parents' views on childhood asthma care: a qualitative study.
Article in BJGP open, 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
backgroundAsthma is the most common chronic disease in children, resulting in considerable morbidity and healthcare utilisation, especially in geographical areas with high deprivation. Parents play a pivotal role in children's asthma management.
aimTo explore the views of parents whose children have asthma, regarding barriers and facilitators to receiving adequate asthma care. DESIGN &
settingA qualitative study conducted in an urban, multi-ethnic setting with high socioeconomic deprivation and paediatric asthma-related hospital admissions.
methodThe study used a pragmatic approach underpinned by a perspective of critical realism. Parents of children with asthma were recruited through purposive and convenience sampling, and data were collected through semi-structured interviews. Transcripts were analysed using thematic analysis, facilitated by NVivo12 software.
resultsTen parents participated in nine interviews. Six themes were identified relating to the following: (1) the establishment of a new life dynamic following a diagnosis of asthma; (2) the turbulent and drawn-out process of asthma diagnosis; (3) the roles and expectations of the partnership established between parents and healthcare services; (4) the importance of schools in asthma management; (5) sources and access to relevant information; and (6) the importance of social support networks. Parents frequently felt unsupported and misunderstood, particularly during the diagnostic process.
conclusionUnmet parental educational and emotional needs, particularly around the time of diagnosis, were identified as a key barrier to adequate asthma management. Deeper understanding of gaps in support can instruct asthma care delivery and inform co-produced interventions, thus improving asthma outcomes in children.
