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

Introduction: Families experiencing adversity often have complex needs and face barriers to accessing health and social care. This study evaluated the acceptability, feasibility and preliminary effectiveness of a Wellbeing Coordination (WBC) program to improve access to services. The program combined care navigation and social prescribing within an integrated health and social care Child and Family Hub. Methods: Mixed-methods design, with data collected through surveys and interviews from: 1) caregivers who participated in the WBC program ( Results: Caregivers and practitioners found the WBC program acceptable and mostly feasible, demonstrating the potential to alleviate caregivers' loneliness and enhance their health, connection to the community, and knowledge and confidence in supporting child and family health and wellbeing. Discussion: Future WBC program enhancements could include a robust communication strategy to ensure what the program offers is clearly understood by practitioners and caregivers, establishing organisational structures to provide adequate support for the wellbeing coordinator and adopting flexible eligibility criteria. Conclusion: The WBC program appears acceptable and feasible. Future research should establish program effectiveness with larger and more diverse caregiver samples.
