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
backgroundThe aim of this study was to reveal the relationship between the health literacy (HL) levels of children with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) and their parents, and the general health status and physical performance of the children.
methodsThis study included 79 children aged 9-18 years with a diagnosis of JIA and one of their parents. HL levels were evaluated with the Turkish version of the Health Literacy for School-Aged Children and Turkish Health Literacy-32 (THL-32) for children and Adult Health Literacy Scale (AHLS) for their parents. The Childhood Health Assessment Questionnaire (CHAQ), 6-minute walk test (6-MWT), 10-meter walking test (10-MWT) and 10-stair climbing test (10-SCT) was used to evaluate the children. Juvenile Arthritis Biopsychosocial Questionnaire (JAB-Q) was used to assess the children's and parents' psychosocial status and perception of health.
resultsHL levels of patients with JIA were 16.5% low HL, %55.7 moderate HL and 27.8% high HL. According to THL-32 scale score, HL level of parents were as follows: inadequate, 3.8%; problematic, 22.8%; sufficient, 34.2%; and excellent, 39.2%. Children's HL levels increase positively as they get older, and no significant relationship was found with other parameters. The AHLS, CHAQ and JAB-Q scores were better in the group with higher education levels of the parents. No statistically significant association was found between the HL of the children and that of the parents.
conclusionIn our study, it was found that the high education levels of the parents positively affected the quality of life and physical condition of their children and parental HL levels. In addition, it was shown that the HL levels of children with JIA were not statistically related to other parameters. PATIENT OR PUBLIC CONTRIBUTION: Children diagnosed with JIA and one of their parents actively participated in the study. Feedback from children and families provided important information about obtaining and using HL information before and during the study. The importance of therapy programs and information focusing on the patient and their family, as well as the inter-multidisciplinary approach, in combating a chronic disease at an early age was reinforced by the feedback received from patients and their families.
