The Experience of Caring for a Medically Complex Child in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit: A Qualitative Study of Parental Impact.
Article in Children (Basel, Switzerland), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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
backgroundParents of children with life-limiting or life-threatening illnesses and/or medical complexity experience intense stress and pain soon after the birth and lifelong. Understanding parents' experiences and coping strategies is the prerequisite to provide tailored support to families.
methodsSemi-structured interviews were administered to the parents of children with medical complexity admitted to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) of Modena between October 2016 and January 2024. The interview was developed based on three time points: birth, hospitalization, and discharge, focusing on parents' experiences, emotions, and communication with healthcare professionals. The interviews were analyzed using the template analysis.
