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
Background: The alarming prevalence of non- or poor adherence to Home-based Exercise Programs (34-79.2 %, HEP) in parents of Children with Cerebral Palsy (C-CP) is a global health concern due to its detrimental effect on treatment outcomes. Objective: To examine whether Perceived Therapist Guidance and Advice (TGA) or social support moderate the effects of PTSD, depression, parenting stress, low self-efficacy, the burden of care, or the effects of perceived family stigma on adherence to HEP. Method: A stratified random sample of 301 mothers of C-CP attending the largest seven physical rehabilitation hospitals or centres in Rwanda participated in this study. Data were collected using validated measures of all investigated constructs. We conducted hierarchical multiple linear regressions, and the nature of moderation was scrutinized using the process macro 4.1 model number 1 within SPSS version 28. Results: The prevalence of adherence to HEP in the present sample was 32.9 % Conclusions: Therapists play a vital role by providing education, support, and counselling to parents, emphasizing the importance of adherence, and addressing any stigma-related concerns, especially for mothers who experience high levels of stress. Therapists should be aware that mothers of C-CP frequently relied solely on their support to improve adherence to HEP.
