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

backgroundEmotional reactions, such as anxiety, irritability, and aggressive behavior, have attracted clinical attention as behavioral and emotional problems in preschool-age children.

aimTo investigate the current status of family rearing, parental stress, and behavioral and emotional problems of preschool children and to analyze the mediating effect of the current status of family rearing on parental stress and behavioral/emotional problems.

methodsWe use convenience sampling to select 258 preschool children in the physical examination center of our hospital from October 2021 to September 2023. The children and their parents were evaluated using a questionnaire survey. Pearson's correlation was used to analyze the correlation between child behavioral and emotional problems and parental stress and family rearing, and the structural equation model was constructed to test the mediating effect.

resultsThe score for behavioral/emotional problems of 258 preschool children was (27.54 ± 3.63), the score for parental stress was (87.64 ± 11.34), and the score for parental family rearing was (31.54 ± 5.24). There was a positive correlation between the behavioral and emotional problems of the children and the "hostile/mandatory" parenting style; meanwhile, showed a negative correlation with the "support/ participation" parenting style (all

conclusionParental family upbringing has a mediating effect between parental stress and behavioral and emotional problems of children. Despite paying attention to the behavioral and emotional problems of preschool-age children, clinical medical staff should provide correct and reasonable parenting advice to their parents to promote the mental health of preschool-age children.
