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

backgroundA newborn with an untreatable genetic disorder could disrupt a family and affect parents' mental health, psycho-social interaction, and parent-child relationships. This study was conducted to explore the psychological problems of mothers having the children with untreatable genetic disorders. MATERIALS AND

methodsThis qualitative study was performed using the conventional content analysis method on 15 mothers having the children with untreatable genetic disorders selected by purposeful sampling. In-depth and semi-structured interviews were used to collect data. The recorded interviews were transcribed verbatim immediately and imported into MAXQDA10 software. Lundman and Granheim's content analysis method and Guba and Lincoln's proposed criteria for assessing rigor of the results were used.

resultsOverall, 1067 primary codes were extracted from the interviews and after the integration of similarities grouped into 19 sub-categories and three major categories including psychological reactions before diagnosis, after determined diagnosis, and after the child's death.

conclusionsThe results showed that having the child with untreatable genetic disorder is considered as a notable psychological trauma and causes painful psychological reactions in parents. In this regard, the following approaches are recommended to health professionals: continuous monitoring of mental health of these families, developing a family education program, emotional and psychological support, and genetic counseling.
