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.

Abstract

objectiveEvaluate the effect of fathers' participation in the Preemie Prep for Parents (P3) program on maternal learning and fathers' preterm birth knowledge.

methodsMothers with preterm birth predisposing medical condition(s) enrolled with or without the baby's father and were randomized to the P3 intervention (text-messages linking to animated videos) or control (patient education webpages). Parent Prematurity Knowledge Questionnaire assessed knowledge, including unmarried fathers' legal neonatal decision-making ability.

results104 mothers reported living with the baby's father; 50 participated with the father and 54 participated alone. In the P3 group, mothers participating with the father (n = 33) had greater knowledge than mothers participating alone (n = 21), 85 % correct responses vs. 76 %, p = 0.033. However, there was no difference in knowledge among the control mothers, 67 % vs. 60 %, p = 0.068. P3 fathers (n = 33) knowledge scores were not different than control fathers (n = 17), 77 % vs. 68 %, p= 0.054. Parents who viewed the video on fathers' rights (n = 58) were more likely than those who did not (n = 96) to know unmarried fathers' legal inability to decide neonatal treatments, 84 % vs. 41 %, p < 0.001.

conclusionsAmong opposite-sex cohabitating couples, fathers' participation in the P3 program enhanced maternal learning. PRACTICE IMPLICATIONS: The P3 program's potential to educate fathers may benefit high-risk pregnancies. CLINICAL
