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
objectiveTo identify challenges vs. supports in the NICU and after NICU discharge for parents of an infant with a major congenital anomaly. STUDY
designQualitative study.
resultsWe interviewed 18 parents (13 mothers, 5 fathers) whose children were admitted to our our NICU with a major congenital anomaly. In the NICU, challenges were navigating parenthood with significant impact on parent mental health, adjusting to changing healthcare providers, and need for better interdisciplinary communication. After discharge home, challenges were an initial adjustment to life without NICU monitoring, loss of NICU medical resources, burden of caregiving, continued healthcare utilization, and financial impact.
conclusionKey supports that were helpful to families were empathetic and consistent healthcare teams throughout their care journey, especially nurses; healthcare team members who went beyond medical care, consistent communication, parent engagement in NICU care, ongoing parent mental health support, and peer resources after discharge home.
