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
objectiveThe primary aim of this study is to identify the needs of caregivers who are primarily responsible for caring for their children during the transition from the hospital. METHODOLOGY: A needs assessment survey was conducted among 30 mothers whose children were admitted to the paediatric medicine ward at the All India Institute of Medical Sciences, Bhubaneswar. The researcher utilized a semi-structured questionnaire alongside unstructured discussions to assess the needs and barriers faced by caregivers during hospital transitions.
resultsThe findings from the semi-structured questionnaire and informal discussions revealed a range of issues, with the most significant being a lack of knowledge regarding the care domains for children in the post-transition phase. Notably, 100% of caregivers reported a lack of written care instructions as a major barrier to effective care during this period.
conclusionThe transition period is particularly vulnerable concerning the quality of care for children, and both parents and caregivers encounter numerous challenges when moving from hospital to home. To improve this experience for patients and caregivers, it is essential to focus on caregivers' needs and the barriers they face during the hospital-to-home transition.
