Improving Motor Skills in Five Children With Developmental Coordination Disorder Traits and Its Impact on Parenting Stress: A Case Series.
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
Poor motor skills in children with developmental coordination disorder (DCD) are associated with childcare stress. This study aimed to assess whether improving the motor skills of children with DCD could reduce parenting stress. The participants were five boys aged 7-10 years with probable DCD and their parents. The intervention comprised 1 hour per week of motor skills training for nine weeks. We measured improvements in the children's motor skills and reductions in parenting stress before and after the intervention. All five children showed improvements in motor skills. Parenting stress was reduced in two parents, whereas it worsened in three parents. Improving motor skills in children with probable DCD may not necessarily reduce parenting stress.
